Mr. Sanders hailed a "great victory" as he held a rally in Manchester, New Hampshire , thanked supporters.

"This victory here is the beginning of the end for Donald Trump ," he said, and promised to build an "unprecedented multi-generational, multi-racial, political movement" to defeat the Republicans.

The result is in Mr Sanders, nine of the 24 delegates who Will represent New Hampshire in the July Democratic national convention, where The Party crowns, won a candidate on the basis of the delegates.

Joe Biden - the only candidate Bernie Sanders trails in the national polling is injured, perhaps mortally so.

What are The Other stories from New Hampshire goods?

Ms Klobuchar, 59, has quit a better-than-expected after a strong debate performance last week.

The Minnesota senator, continued vigorously in The Last days before the vote, adding stations in Three Cities between Sunday and Tuesday.

If you are on the third place meant you would only win six delegates to the result of intensified their campaign to go by their dynamics, in order to keep Nevada and South Carolina , the next Two States to competitions.

"Everyone who had counted told us a week ago," Ms Klobuchar. "I came back, and we have delivered".

An accident in The Night , Mr. Yang was a political newcomer. His idealistic run centered on The Promise of a universal basic income and the management of the challenges of automation, inspired by an enthusiastic, but ultimately marginal, following.

Mr. Yang said he was proud of a campaign that had "brought a message of Humanity First , and a vision of an economy and a society that works".

Mr Bennet, the Colorado senator, suspended his campaign. He had not qualified for a debate since August of 2019, and was polling at less than one percent nationwide.

Ms Warren, 70, was awarded no delegates, but said she would continue to do so. "Our campaign is designed for the Long Haul and we are just getting started," She Said .

Is it a last stand for Biden?

for months, after he was seen in the race in April 2019, Mr Biden as the frontrunner, polling as high as 41% at the national level.

The former Vice-President, 77, fourth in Iowa , and his support has dropped about 20% at the national level, putting him behind Mr Sanders for the First Time .

In a sign that he's expecting another disappointing finish on Tuesday, Mr Biden deceased New Hampshire , before The Last polls closed, had to head to South Carolina .

Support for Mr Biden is stronger among African-American voters, about Two -thirds of the southern state primaries, voters.

But, a Quinnipiac poll showed that support dropped after the Iowa Caucasus, from 52% to 27%, although you, Mr. Biden is still The Most popular Democrat for the black voters.
