Huge Blow for Joe Biden as Bernie Sanders Wins New Hampshire Primary

It was a disastrous night for Joe Biden, who finished fifth after Senator’s Amy Klobuchar and Elizabeth Warren – the worst ever showing for a former Vice President who openly contested the New Hampshire Primary. Biden, once the Democratic frontrunner, has suffered some huge setbacks in recent months.

The New Hampshire race was tight, however. With just over 95% of the vote reported, Sanders led Pete Buttigieg, the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, by less than 2 percent – a margin of nearly 4,000 votes.

Still, Sanders claimed the night as a “great victory” and even promised that the win signified “the beginning of the end” for President Trump. Surrounded by his family, the 78-year-old socialist revealed that his election strategy was to build an “unprecedented multi-generational, multi-racial political movement” in order to “defeat the most dangerous president in modern history.”

Earlier in the night, Trump took to Twitter to offer his own commentary on the political drama as it unfolded. “Bootedgeedge (Buttigieg) is doing pretty well tonight. Giving Crazy Bernie a run for his money. Very interesting!” he said, before noting that the media was desperate to find a Democratic win amongst the NH results.
