After an anxious night for both Democratic and Republican candidates, Ted Cruz and Hillary Clinton win pulling out close wins in Iowa.
Due to a very close tie between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, CNN did not confirm Hillary Clinton’s win until around 1pm on Tuesday.
"The results tonight are the closest in Iowa Democratic caucus history," Iowa party chairman Andy McGuire said.
New Hampshire is the next state to vote on February 9, with Sanders holding a strong lead he is expected to beat Clinton in New Hampshire.
Hillary and Bernie both held rallies in New Hampshire Tuesday, Hillary told supporters, “I am so thrilled to be coming to New Hampshire after winning Iowa! I have won and I have lost there, it is a lot better to win.” …show more content…
Trump stated, "We will go on to get the Republican nomination and we will go on to easily beat Hillary or Bernie," "We finished second, and I have to say I am just honored."
Ted Cruz has even been accused by Trump for sealing Iowa Caucus, in a tweet that Trump put out on Wednesday he stated, "Based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified.”
Although Sanders was defeated by Hillary in Iowa, he feels that his campaign has made tremendous progress. In a speech with hundreds of supporters gathered, sanders shared a heartfelt message, stating, "Nine months ago, we came to this beautiful state, we had no political organization, we had no money, we had no name recognition and we were taking on the most powerful political organization in the United States of America."
The caucuses resulted in two casualties -- one on each side. Former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, a Democrat, and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, a Republican, both dropped their candidacies after faring poorly.
These next few months will be imperative for all candidates on each end of the spectrum as they push for voters support in the upcoming primary
