Sanders declared the winner?

Delegates allocated

9 Sanders
9 Buttigieg
6 Klobuchar


Just look at that. Sanders won because he got more delegates than Buttigieg in NH. (I am looking for my sarcasm emoji)
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

I guess vote count only matters when you like the candidate. How did Biden do?

Both WGBH and NBC said "ekes"

Ekes? "obtain or create, but just barely?"

25.9% vs. 24.4% seems a bit more than "ekes." JFK won the popular vote by a much slimmer margin. George Bush won electoral college by smaller margin (and lost the popular vote). Scaled up, Bernie won by about 3 percentage points. "Eke" indeed.
