The campaigns of Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and Amy Klobuchar all indicated Tuesday that their internal campaign data show former Vice President Joe Biden finished fourth in Monday night's Iowa caucus.
The Daily Beast reported that Warren's campaign went further and said he finished in a "distant" fourth place, claiming its internal data showed a three-way race between herself, former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Sanders.
"It's a mess," Warren campaign manager Roger Lau told reporters, according to Politico. "I think that every single second that passes where we don't get a final result is concerning."

(67,782 posts)....we've heard about from the Sanders campaign, regardless of the results this is a hugely disappointing caucus for Sanders, the lowest turnout since 2000 in a contested caucus.
2004 - 45%
2008 - 57%
2012 - uncontested
2016 - 44%
2020 - 35%

(16,018 posts)Had the results came out last night, Joe could have said, well we learned a lot and we are going to implement some changes to make us more competitive in upcoming states. And it would have gotten some attention, but now everyone will be paying attention and ultimately will make iowas Results look huge compared to just a being first state.
