Transcripts For CNNW Americas Choice 2020 New Hampshire Primary 20200212

Broadest support within the Vice President. Once considered a favorite. Party and the most diverse fifth in New Hampshire. Support. Hes done it in states that have second contest of 2020 brings no racial diversity. And as the calendar turns to the new uncertainty of the race and more diverse states he faces an enormous challenge, expanding narrowing of the field. Andrew yang, Michael Bennett his support into pulled the plugs on their africanamerican and latino campaigns tonight. Why did this happen, what do we communities. Joe biden theoretically was the champion of africanamerican communities. Its not clear he can recover know . From this historically bad lets go to david. Showing tonight in new chris, were looking at how hampshire. Right now youd have to say that sanders put together the victory that he did in New Hampshire. We are in for an extended first of all the candidate quality voters told us they grinding slog in which i think cared about more than anything was the candidate that can bring none of these candidates are positioned to significantly pull away from the other. Then you have the new dynamic of needed change. 38 want that. Look at this. Michael bloomberg coming in with its a sanders strength. All this money and but also some he got 35 of them. Significant vulnerability and limits of his own. Rebecca, your take. Buttigieg got 23 of them. The question for me is what happens over the next few weeks how about the liberal voters. Because if we were talking about the state of the race and super 21 of the electorate. Not a huge bucket. Tuesday were tomorrow that would they are overwhelmingly sanders be one thing but we are going into these diverse states where voters. He won them 48 to 19 . We dont really know whats going to happen now that it a 30 point gap there. Thats a huge victory among the looks like joe bidens campaign is collapsing or on the verge of collapse. We havent really seen any 20 liberal. Recent polling out of nevada, do you want a candidate who South Carolina to suggest who is agrees with you on the issues or the person who fills that vacuum if joe biden is not doing as can beat trump. They want a candidate that can well in those states in light of beat trump. What weve seen in iowa and new among the 34 that are look for hampshire. Perhaps Bernie Sanders is the candidate on the issues. Someone he has been making gains that candidate is sanders. With minorities, hes very well 39 to buttigieg 21. Positioned in nevada, potentially could be in South Carolina as well. 18 point lead. So while you guys talk im a slightly smaller share of the going to show february 3. 9 of electorate. A huge sanders lead and finally this is huge for sanders. The delegates were available. And we still have nevada and nearly six in ten. South carolina to go, which are very different states than iowa 60 support the medicare for all and New Hampshire in every plan. In favor of getting rid of measurable metric that should matter to democrats. In march, to the point you were private insurance for a making, rebecca, now the game is government run plan. His plan and he has a 17 point on. Youre going to have 3 4 of the available delegates, and you victory among the voters. Cant hide. Youre going to be in all parts 39 to 22 . Of the country, all different he consolidated the liberal regions are at play. Base. In terms of whos taken a bite the candidate of change. Out of biden, bernie maybe. That is how he put together the win. All right. Steyer in South Carolina. Well see an emerging story. Bloomberg in the latest national one steady theme, sanders is poll. Billionaires taking a bite out part of a movement. Of the guy whos supposed to be the workingclass champion. You can use whatever word you make sense of that. First of all, he is want. You see that at the top of the ticket two times in a row. Struggling to be the worki workingclass champion. Nobody else can say that to this he has not been winning noncollege white voters who point. Thats obviously part of the along with africanamericans story. Once again like iowa, were were supposed to be his core constituency, especially wunger talking about the top three. We see them here. Ones. He only won Single Digits. Fixed. Its the most interesting. The cnn polling unit ran the numbers for me tonight. In the New Hampshire primary he across the entire state. Won Single Digits among give credit to sanders a win the bluecollar whites who were younger than 45. Sec straight popular vote. The states that are coming in march look a lot more like obviously calling it for nevada and South Carolina than sanders. The state itself, take a look at they do like iowa and New Hampshire. The diversity of the democratic where sanders fts in firs, party comes in big in the early part of march. Second and third. Youre going to have states like texas, arizona, california with first, second and third. Big latino populations. Thats all of the map. Youre going to have the entire that we have in. Up to this point. Southeast with the large africanamerican populations as thats where sand. Well as several midwestern obvious he he won. Battlegrounds, itch michigan, lets move up to buttigieg. Illinois, ohio with large africanamerican populations. And that is just the enormous first, second and third. Question in the democratic race. You can overlay the map. Bernie sanders last time ran well with black voters under 35 lets look at klobuchar. And then fell off the table among older africanamerican third place. First, second and third. Voters you still believe in the ceiling argument about bernie over laying the entire map. Why you know these top three sanders. Until proven otherwise. Were essentially static hes got the money to try to throughout the course of the change it. Night is exactly this. But so far in these first two not warren from bordering massachusetts. Races one quick number. Not joe biden. Go ahead. You cant see in the top four at in iowa according to the exit poll sanders won 7 of the 8. 4 who had name recognition people who voted for hillary and the Vice President. Clinton last time. In New Hampshire he won 13 . Those three throughout every township in the state of new he is still depending almost hampshire were coming in first, entirely on people who voted for him last time. Second and third. They have the gap when you pull in a multicandidate field could it up and see where it stands that be the biggest single piece . Does it get him anywhere near a right now. I want to talk about sanders. Majority . No. You talk about how last time what does that tell you about the state of the party, though, around four years ago he had a if its bernie and everyone victory in New Hampshire. And lets look back at 2016. Else . Is that what the state of play it was a crushing victory. Is within the democratic mindset . Thats what its looking like. I dont think we can be that everywhere he went whether it reductive about it. Was College Towns or rural. I was just up in New Hampshire speaking with voters there. Or affluent towns. I was at a Bernie Sanders event he was crushing clinton and there were folks there who throughout the course of New Hampshire. Tonight is different. Were deciding between Pete Buttigieg and Bernie Sanders. This isnt necessarily an apples people were thinking about this to apples comparison. Its a multicandidate race. Purely in an ideological way. I think the Common Thread we see theres not necessarily a among Many Democrats this psychsale that they want a protest vote. Change agent. If you look at the areas in 2016 so that could be Pete Buttigieg, who is one of the youngest where sanders dominated. Candidates ever to be in this position, or that could be areas you expect. Bernie sanders, who is calling vermont border town. For a revolution of sorts. Affluent areas and rural areas. It means Different Things to different voters. One thing sanders has done flip it back to 20. Compared to last time is he does seem to be clearly improving his where we were tonight. Standing among latinos. In the border towns in vermont. And that could be very important. It could help him win these are arent huge towns. California. It could help him win nevada. A college town. Hanover. The question is what does where buttigieg had wins. Winning mean . Not huge wins not massive if youre winning at 25 to 30 you are not going to get to a majority of the delegates. And then you have a situation numbers. He made up ground there. Where he could easily go into same down here. Milwaukee with the most look at where klobuchar and delegates but not a majority of buttigieg really made gains. Delegates. The population of New Hampshire, and the combined delegates of its here. The more moderate candidates this is where you are picking up could be a majority. Then what happens . What does it mean just in the numbers. Granted, sanders clearly winning biden factor . The biggest towns. Dollar, put up the map for a second for february. So we have South Carolina winning in manchester. Coming. And then nevada. Throughout this area right here, what does he have to do in klobuchar and buttigieg making nevada in order for biden to be serious gains winning a will the back in the discussion . I think he has to come in of towns. It wasnt enough to over come sanders strength. Second. I suppose if he even comes in third hell try to say comeback it under scores even in new kid. The Culinary Workers Union as hampshire a state sanders you know is the most powerful dominated in 2016. Political force in nevada overall, not to mention the there were other candidates able Democratic Party. To make moves. The other thing theres no doubt they are extremely opposed to medicare for all. About it. Everybody will come out talking tonight they came out guns blazing to their members about klobuchar. Not because she won or because she was within five or six attacking sanders by name, points of sanders because of the saying he would take away the strength she showed over the health care theyve negotiated last couple weeks. For their members. Look at the dark green counties with that kind of opening youd have to say biden needs a very youll see a lot of these towns strong showing to get himself back in the conversation. Do the debates matter . Were republican in 2016. Two more this month. When it came to the november yes. Election klobuchar winning the and in fact, weve gone now towns this time around. Through a race and a half that was key. Without any democrat truly thank you. Very interesting and emerging taking on Bernie Sanders over the breadth of his agenda. Picture. Lets talk about why these three banning fracking, banning the were so solid all night long. Internal Combustion Engine by what it means for the state of play in the party. 2030, proposing 60 trillion in new spending over a decade that you were looking most closely at would double the size of the federal government. The numbers. These issues have not been Bernie Sanders is the person litigate ppd democrats have not identified with the movement. Felt it makes sense because his in politics most often with a voters seem to be an island. Youve got to say if youre not president wins they harness going to litigate them now when something bigger than are they . Well see. Themselves. Certainly true with the the you look at the march map it will be 65 of the delegates all president we have now. Over the country, cant hide any second place buttigieg for now. Weaknesses there. Rebecca, ron, thank you very much. All right. Third place klobuchar a lot more on how this race is going to change for the democrats Going Forward. Overperformed. Why . Largely because of the debate but first, we have an update on performance friday. Another major story that were it was half the electorate following. Weve never seen anything like said it was important to them. She won those voters. This. Four federal prosecutors quit by a substantial margin. After the roger stone case that was huge for her. She got momentum out of her iowa because of being undercut by finish as well. And i was thinking about is that their bosses on what the right two months ago at the december debate in l. A. , we saw her start punishment is. Trumps fingerprints are all over this. What it means, next. [sfx doorbell] really going at buttigieg. In a really directed manner. She knew exactly who she needed to take a slice out of in order to have success. She hasnt let up. She did it again friday. This has been her goal. It is to her success. Should klobuchar not have had the night she had, buttigieg may have overtaken sanders in the results tonight. So she executed a plan in sort of the closing two months of the campaign rather well knowing where she needed to get the vote from. You kept hearing from people senator klobuchar would do interviews after the debate. And van jones would say why wasnt this the klobuchar on the stage. Shes gotten to express herself hello, more and position herself in a i saw you move in, and i wanted to welcome you to the neighborhood with some homemade biscuits way people are liking and we heard from the voters in new oh, thats so nice hampshire. They decided recently. And a little tip, geico could help you save on homeowners insurance. Where does this result take you in term of understanding where hmm the party is headed . Cookies uhh, biscuits. She wasnt great on the mmmm, debate stage when she started. Is there a little nutmeg in there . The first debate she did oh its my mums secret recipe. You can tell me. Terrible. And she started to see more of its a secret. Is it cinnamon . Its my mums secret recipe. Her. Anyone who spent time with her. Call geico and see how easy she got comfortable and saving on homeowners and condo insurance can be. Aggressive. Ill come back for the plate. She really is making the case that she can beat trump. Shes what you need. Shes the person that you need a new kind of investor with an app thats changing the way we do money. In terms of a moderate person who has won statewide races sp making a case. Download robinhood now. Theyre voting on somebody who will vote trump. Not somebody who necessarily agrees with them ideology. People are overwhelmingly in favor of free college and in favor of medicare for all and getting rid of private are you currently using a whitening toothpaste, but not seeing results . Try crest 3d whitestrips. Insurance. Yet sanders isnt running i way its enamelsafe formula lifts and removes stains to provide 100 noticeably whiter teeth or your money back. With it. I want somebody who can beat try crest 3d whitestrips. Trump. I would be spending more time on that trying to convince people he can beat trump. Vs. Arguing on the issues. The negative take aways from the race. The headline is split. Bad night for biden. He wasnt even in there he was in South Carolina. And Elizabeth Warren. You were telling me the other night history of people from massachusetts running for president and how they have done in New Hampshire was god. This we didnt see. We didnt see she would be this far down the line here. We were saying she needs a strong first or second place finish. What happened . We didnt see it a month ago, we have seen a flagging Elizabeth Warren campaign. I think you can pinpoint the decline of Elizabeth Warren to the fall. We had debate in ohio. And she was really pressured that she wouldnt say whether or not she would raise taxes on healthcare and came out with plan that stepped away from the im with bernie. Heres what happened, she was running unlike a politician. A plan for everything was talking about that big structural change. Fighting on her core message. And she seemed like a politician because she was trying to dance around a politically tricky issue of medicare for all and how to pay for it. It didnt work. She never really recovered from that. I would note that her poor performance in iowa fed into New Hampshire as well. And so yes, this is a really poor night for her. She is from neighboring massachusetts. The other thing that happened she flagged and sanders has consolidated that progressive wing informant party. That hurt warren. We havent seen a consolidation on the other side. We havent seen one person all right. Emerge on the moderate side. One reason that the election we have seen it happen on the matters so much is because of left. That is sanders success and it what were seeing happen in our happened at the cost of warren. Government, especially tonight. All right . The temptation the desire the a mutiny by federal prosecutors, four of them. Why do i say that . Appetite is we understand. Well, four left the case against no we dont. This is february. Trumps longesttime adviser. Thats not a real word. Delegates are being dished out this month. Theres a lot to come. The person thats been an adviser for the longest time to in march you will have 65 of donald trump is roger stone. Okay . His sentencing recommendation was put in by who they call the the available delegates on the line prosecutors, those who were table. And if you look at it, gray are doing the case directly. The states where you wont have all right . Had any action yet. Then Justice Department the light color gray is where officials overrule that sentence there will have been a primary already. Recommendation as if they hadnt or caucus. Signed on to it originally. And all the dark blue is the why . Well, the only thing we know is states in play in that month. Something that is no now, this is the real deal. Coincidence. The president said the sentence wasnt fair. All of the sudden they put in a not just numberically. Thin brief saying there should be less time. Two of our legal analysts are but qualitatively. Both former federal prosecutors. Corner to corner. You go to april and 86 . Elliott williams, shan wu. Gentlemen, thank you. And again, just on the consensus may 94. And youre starting to talk point, have you ever heard of about who is going to be with anything like this before . No. Whom and the best ticket. Have you ever heard of this is absolute madness. And convention. No. The normal protocol obviously and idea of a broker convention involves no gaps, especially in is a remote argument. A highprofile case the bosses would know about the sentence. March. Youll have 65 of the the idea of debate about the sentence not unusual. Delegates. No hiding. Whatever your weakness is will but feeling once its offered up to the judge now we have to be exposed. Change this. Whatever your chances to build has that ever happened . Something bigger than yourself no. Its never happened. Will be imposed or gone. No. We then have to look at why there are other primaries here. Ill take the opposite. Happened in between there. Well, because the president s its not these dont happen right, it was grossly beyond what should be seen here. In a vacuum. What do you see in this they build on each other. Sentencing menu menu. Even if you look at piden the memo in terms of the basis numbers with africanamericans for that argument that wow, did they go way overboard . Post iowa. First of all, i think thats what was it that made the the first time weve heard anything from this numbers go down . We dont know for sure. Administration that a sentence it happened after iowa. Was too broad or too crazy. Everybody is paying attention to whats happening and success but set that aside. The way the federal sentencing guidelines work is that once begets success. So its very hard to bounce back. Biden saying im going south someone has been convicted of an offense they get essentially a carolina and everything will be score. Right . And things get added to that different. Is it . We dont know. Score based on the facts of the this is the biggest question case. For instance, if you threaten someone with violence, if you mark. Its clear that sanders is in if its an ongoing scheme, if the drivers seat at the moment. You use a weapon, those are the kinds of things that bump the he had a good showing in iowa. Score up. Wins New Hampshire. Here the line prosecutors, the it is unclear and the reason i think that buttigieg and career prosecutors worked that all out and it comes out to seven to nine years. You or i sit heerg might think klobuchar still have ast risk that sounds like a draconian next to their name is because of sentence or whatever, but that doesnt matter because thats the issue of the nonwhite vote we havent gotten to. You know the way that all those what the federal sentencing guidelines say and thats what courts across the country rely on. Its harsh but within the states a lot in the south. Guidelines and roger stone did commit the major foul in terms of the world you that guys used to be in, which is he tried you. Heavy africanamerican participation. Theres question marks hanging he said im trying the case and around the fresher faces of then youre looking at the upper klobuchar and buttigieg. Sentence, seven to nine is the because they still have upper part of the sentence. Something to prove. Its not like the sentencing guideline is three to five and sanders has to grow. Theres no doubt about that. They just gave him seven to nine. They award the delegates so what does it lead you to as a proportionately. Logical conclusion about what its tough to make a big leap on happened here to have this type of change in disposition . Someone. Now the test out of this is it can only be a political influence because the second klobuchar and buttigieg how they memo theyd the watered down prove they can expand version, theyre really arguing something technical but coalitions. Something called a variance, who would have ever thought which is saying we need to var those are the names you would be grit guidelines range to go hearing exclusion of joe biden. Lower because of these other factors. Thats fine. They can do that. You were being polite. But before you do that youve there are two states left in got to talk through those points february. With your supervisors before you they should mean everything to joe biden. Why . Because this theory of the can ask for the variance. Democratic party is a big ten. Its backwards. It would happen first, then they that sound weird when they start would come out and do that. In iowa and New Hampshire. But they went through that. Weve heard reporting there was talk as to what the recommendation should be. That was the recommendation, seven to nine. Nevada and South Carolina now then what happens . That is bidens all in scenario. Trump weighs in, sudden not for everybody else. Reversal. March will be that. Okay. Now the next pushback. Lets take a break. So what . Hes the president of the united how do we see this picture after states. Hes able to say he doesnt like a sentence. And if the d. O. J. Decides they tonight of what the odds are of want to modify based on the chief executive says we dont winning the nomination . Know he had direct influence. So is that how the law works well break it down next. Feel the clarity of new now . We have an entire body of laws that have stood for decades that the government that congress has passed, the courts across the country follow, and all of a sudden donald trump comes in and says i dont like how something works and therefore career prosecutors who devoted decades to serving without fear or favor all of a sudden have their work thrown away because donald trump put in a tweet. That is nonsense. The four prosecutors stepping away is a bad fact for me because it shows a level of outrage. But do you need to show a direct action by the president with the big shots at the d. O. J. In order for this to be anything more than a political curiosity . No, because hes publicly stating it really. And to elliots point its interesting because the system doesnt rely on a rule that says the president as head of the executive cannot do this. Right. But its a system of integrity and trust thats built up over decades and decades that the higherups at justice try to insulate not only the line nondrowsy claritin cool mint chewables. Prosecutors from political input the only allergy product but the institution they try to with relief of your worst symptoms, protect it from that. Including itchy throat. And thats whats being lost. Plus an immediate blast of cooling sensation. And on top of that the folks who signed the memo that feel the clarity and live claritin clear. Superseded this, they should be ashamed of themselves because what they did was throw their staff under the bus. My grandfather had an but ancestry showed me so much more than i could have imagined. These were folks that had spent a lot of time working on the my grandfather was born in a shack in pennsylvania, fact theyve spent a lot of time on it doesnt matter, but its his father was a miner, right as a matter of law. They were immigrants from italy and somewhere along the way and then based on a political that man changed his name and transformed himself into a matter, the bosses came in and said no, sorry, were going to throw your work away. Successful midcentury american man. Thats just bad management and its ugly and its a dark place he had a whole life that i didnt know anything about. That were taking federal prosecution in this country if he was just my beloved grandpa. Thats how decisions the fact that the trial team bring your Family History to life like never before. Resigned. They fought hard for that get started for free at ancestry. Com victory. For them to walk away says i dont feel like its my case anymore. Also its the president playing the system two different ways. One is if you looked at his tweet, no reason to show it to them. People can find it themselves. Why . Because its a malignant tweet. Its filled with a lot of things that arent true, half true, and its trying get you to believe that the institution of justice is corrupt and against it and only this president can save you. So hes trying to have it two ways. Hes trying to have you not believe in the institution of justice, the administration of justice, but also hes not offering a pardon to his friend. If you care so much about the sentence, pardon him. Thats within your exclusive power and you dont have to mess with the administration of justice. Its on you. Why wont you take some risk for your friend . Why just blame the institution instead of blaming yourself . Because the answer is within your own power. All right. So thats whats going on with this story. Well take you through more of it. It certainly isnt over. Senator Bernie Sanders pulls off a narrow win in New Hampshire. That is a good thing, but yes, people expected him to win by more. Pete buttigieg, only less than 2 behind. Overperforming again. What does a primary this close mean Going Forward . Next. Phlegmy cough. Ok mucinex dm fory what about robs dry cough . Works on that too. And last 12 hours. 12 hours .

Saved my life. What we do here at danafaber, changes lives everywhere. Everywhere. Everywhere. Everywhere. Everywhere. All right. Thanks to move free ultra i keep up with this little one. Another interesting race in new see the world with this guy. Hampshire. It will create all new kinds of and hit the town with these girls. In a clinical study, possibilities. But the one thing thats for 4 out of 5 users felt better joint comfort. Take the ultra challenge. Certain, sanders strong once try move free today. Again. Like in iowa. New hampshire hes in the top. A clear plan for retirement youll see in the delegate break to help cover the essentials, as well as all the things you want to do. Down he buttigieg will probably because when you have a retirement partner end up with the same amount. Who gives you clarity at every step, who came in behind bernie. Theres nothing to stop you from moving forward. Buttigieg very close. Klobuchar is now going to be in your ear a lot. Thats how it works in elections. When you get results they dominate. Youll hear about who had a tough night and whos gone as well. One perspective on this we have the rankings for tonight. How do they play into the big picture. The odds of winning the nomination. Lets look at the odds of the who gives you clarity at every step, first person who is improved the do you recall, not long ago most after the first two we would walk on the sidewalk contests. Its Bernie Sanders. Look at him now a 5. 5 in 10 all around the wind blows we would only hold on to let go chance of getting the most amount of delegates. Blow a kiss into the sun compared to where he was before the iowa caucus. We need someone to lean on he was at a 3 in ten shot. Blow a kiss into the sun another candidate. All we needed somebody to lean on Pete Buttigieg at one in ten. The new xc90 plugin hybrid electric. Compared to where he was before iowa. In New Hampshire voted. Xc90. Recharged. He was a. 5 in ten shot. Hes up after a Strong Performance in iowa and New Hampshire. Someone else who is up. This might be a surprise. Bloomberg is at a 1 in 10 shot. Based on the fact hes been strong in National Polls. That is up from where he was iowa and New Hampshire. When he was a. 5 shot. Youre doing more to keep your body healthy for the future. Shouldnt your toothpaste do the same for your mouth . The senator from New Hampshire. Future proof your whole mouth with new crest pro active defense. Klobuchar. She is at a. 5 in ten shot. Its active Defense Technology neutralizes bacteria which isnt that high. Compared to where she was before to shield against potential issues. The iowa caucus. Crest. A. 1 in ten chance of winning the most amount of delegates. Its interesting to figure out what bloomberg will mean to this party. What it says about the way the system works that hes into it to the point he is. What it says about the party. How much more theyre trying to figure out about what they want and whom. Those are the green arrows. Thats good. Now you have the odds that have gone down the most. What do you have . If someone goes up someone must go down. Former Vice President of the United States. Joe biden at a 1. 5 in 10 shot. Compared to where he was before iowa. He was a 4. 5. He was the favorite. Another person who is down. The senator from massachusetts. Elizabeth warren. Shes a. 5 in ten shot. Compared to br she was before iowa. She had a one in ten shot. Shes down. Bad for both the former Vice President and senior senator from massachusetts. I wont burden you with the odds of a brokered convention. Well save it for another day. The idea of the upcoming states, so weve been saying the first of the nation, the votes, you have 65 of available delegates between now and into the caucus, the primary its march. Coming and guess what . Weve had. How do you think the changing experts, im going to go around demographics that reflect more the table and i want to know of what the party says its what you see Going Forward. Amanda . About will effect the out come i would say the biggest thing of the odds . Im watching is what michael sfwl iowa and New Hampshire are white states. Bloomberg does and if he nevada not a white sate. Materializes anything that lives look at the democratic outside a television commercial. Electorate in 2016. Youve got to build a movement. 59 were white. I always tell people when they tell me theyre bloomberg fans i 19 latino. 13 africanamerican. Say has he ever delivered a this is going to be the first speech thats brought people to real test. Their feet and they look at me one state in the entire nation that i think looks like a Democratic Party as a whole its blankly. He may not need to win that way. Okay, since you spoke up what do you think . Im going to be watching to inform nevada. If you do well your chances go see what the workers do and im up. South carolina. Where the former Vice President was. The majority of the electorate also going to be watching the africanamerican. 61 in 2016. Margins. A different bloomberg aspect if the Vice President cannot win the South Carolina primary his which is the nevada debate. He is one poll away from chances to win the nomination go reaching the deadline. The deadline is february 18th. Goodbye. See you later. If he makes it on that stage thank you. Ill check back. Thatll throw a whole x factor don lemon now trying to get ahead of nevada where he isnt perspective. Even on the ballot. Joe biden we know what basket he before i say what im looking put his eggs in. Its a different picture than a for i just want to say what im month ago. I want to propose to the looking forward to and thats folks my experts i have here. Getting together in south who would have thought, good carolina and nevada for the next two weeks at this great hour. I want to see scenarios come mortgage morning to all of you all true that we believe that joe biden is going to rebound, you here. Who would have thought a month know, or wont rebound out of ago or sitting here just a week South Carolina. What will happen to the africanamerican vote. Ago looking at the stunning out what will happen on up toer tuesday. Will we see Amy Klobuchar burst come we didnt know how iowa out of this or will we see a was going to turn out. Race that continues to remain we had klobuchar beating out a unsettled for months to come. Former Vice President. And Elizabeth Warren. Now onto my mayors. I would say a different version of what youre looking and then you have Pete Buttigieg and you have sanders all at the forward to is id like to see top. Whether or not for amy i dont think anyone could have klobuchar, for Pete Buttigieg, predicted that a month ago and im less worried about sanders maybe not a week ago. But to some extent sanders, it isnt just who we saw them whether or not their capacity to defeat tonight. They beat booker and people grow their base of support thought he would be somebody in actually expands over these next two races. Serious contention. If not, were going to see a bit kamala harris. Of an inverse. Somebody as well who people and i think those probably at thought would be in serious the bottom come to the top and contention for the nomination. The those at the top come to the including myself. Whats interesting you have the two candidates from middle america, that the democratic bottom. I appreciate it. Party seems to have lost. Im watching joe biden. That to me is the x factor, he im sure the mayor can talk about that. Does well in nevada hes going to do well in South Carolina. This thing is going to change. They are now surging. If he does not do that, then i and these are the kind of voters think youre going to start that the Democratic Party looking at bloomberg and see certainly needs to appeal to. What impact hes going to have on the race. And you have to wonder are they i learned after the last catching the back wind of the thought within the party. Election that we all sat here and covered not to be no, im you want to respond is this. There are a couple things. Whats next is as important as talking about 2016. Not to been in the prediction what happened in the first two. Business, and i think, chris, that is a lesson that we all not taking away from that. Theres extraordinary things. Learned because you dont know. You know what i want, chris . When you move into South Carolina and nevada youre what do you want . Moving into completely different im going to sit here and im going to be open. Territory. I predict the out comes will be being open and just to see how this thing really plays out somewhat different than what they have been in the first two. Because listen its the first two contests and weve got a long way to go. When you come out of iowa and listen, no one ever thought mayor Pete Buttigieg would be in this position. New hampshire pushing like they i certainly didnt think that are. Amy klobuchar might be going as it gives you ticket. High as she did now. Klobuchar took votes away from i wasnt sure about that, but im open. Pete and the Vice President. Here we are, Amy Klobuchar is and warren. To me warren was more surprising third. Than biden. Mayor Pete Buttigieg is second. Hes won one contest, and you because this is close to her have Bernie Sanders a democratic hometown. Im anxious to see what happens socialist, a selfdeclared inspect next couple weeks democratic socialist who isnt even a democrat, hes an especially supertuesday. Independent in the top spot do you think not to down right now. Play iowa and New Hampshire. Its good to be open, but considering that this is 2016 youre right we cant make any was such an unusual race. This has been unusual. Are people putting too much assumptions, its too early. I have two questions. Stock in the caucus and primary . One is anybody enough in the democratic field . The truth is they have the even Bernie Sanders is he going to have a ceiling that puts him role of wit lg candidates out. We saw two drop out tonight. 30, 35 but its not going to be enough and theyll have a following the results. Brokered convention. I do i dont know if its a fear second question, when are the democrats going to change this or concern. Or a prediction. System . They start off in two states that dont look like the party but i would guess the next they say they are. Several races wont necessarily theyve got more registrants look the way this does. That are republican in say iowa largely to do with the or New Hampshire. Diversifying of the field. Theres no diversity there, and i wouldnt hold that to be true youve lost all the diversity in your field. So the party you say you want to for sand. In part because he does have a be all the diversity is out of it by the time you get to your diverse base. Among voters of color it happens first two contests. I think thats going to to be younger voerts of the change next time. I really dont think youre color. Its still diversified. Going to see iowa as the first contest next time because its tonight he gave a good really not representative of the nation. I doubt New Hampshire will change, but ill tell you one forward looking speech. Thing, chris, they better not interesting how it carries into change and thats dixville nevada and South Carolina. The fear factor on team biden is notch, because every single season i look forward to you have placed everything, you seeing the midnight vote. The midnight vote and it is a heard it in the speech. Part of americana and i always i love you i hope you love me back. Say its a wonderful life and i that was a foreshadowing of i feel like its a little town and need you to perform for me in its a wonderful life and i expect i keep thinking george order for the story. I interviewed the former vice is going to come out and say the president last night. They were shell shocked about town has been save asked they found all the money. Good, im for that. The numbers when it comes to africanamerican support. Be the party you say you want to dropping by half. It was like 49 to 27 or be. Don lemon, look something. Dropping by almost half. That was shocking to them. Well see you next time. You want to weigh in . All right, our nuchl primary coverage continues on cnn. I feel like the biggest early start is next. Headline is sanders took another state. I find this incredibly confusing when all the democrats say the number one priority is beat trump. Now you have sanders winning. Who is widely viewed by republicans as being the most beatable. I believe this is a guy with a long 50 year record full of problems. Big defense cuts. Massive cuts it private imagine. Megared omega3 power for your whole body. Healthcare. Supporters believe hes been now with an antioxidant blend for great sleep, vetted and tested. Clinton didnt lay a glove on refreshed skin and less stress. This guy in 2016. One softgel. 7 benefits. She did nothing. Total body refresh. Republicans are going to do to power your day with megared. Him. If youre 55 and up, nobody is prepared for that. Tmobile has a plan designed just for you. Thats the sleeper. And, for a limited time only, democrats dont believe it. Were making it an even better deal. Now you can get two lines for only 55. They did what trump said. They voted for the weakest that includes unlimited talk, text and data. With no annual service contracts. Thats what theyre saying. Do you believe that . I do think there are a number it also includes talk, text and data when traveling in mexico and canada. Of candidates who havent been totally tested in part because so if youre 55 and up, you can now get two lines for only 55. Democrats havent taken him seriously as a front runner. Because at tmobile, he is after tonight. The gloves will probably come we have a plan designed just for you. Out in the weeks ahead. He was more comfortable. I think other democrats running their campaigns recognize he is the one to beat. He will sail to the nomination unless something changes. Nevada and South Carolina are states where he has a good operation and on the air and has support among africanamericans and latinos. I think that will shift. I think it will shift for other candidates. Klobuchar had a great night in New Hampshire. She doesnt have an operation on the ground in nevada or South Carolina. Its hard to pick it up so quickly. She hasnt been totally tested or vetted publicly. Thats starting to change. People going after the cases she argued when she was the the 16 yearold. That will pick up too. Rowithout the Commission Fees and account minimums. I think theres some dynamic so, you can start investing wherever you are that will shift as a result of even on the bus. Tonight. I want to talk about download now and get your first stock on us. Electability. Our former colleague who ran for robinhood. Mayor of kansas city, missouri. Im finding it hard to stay on a faster laptop could help. Not kansas. Plus, tech support to stay worry free ill read the first two and last one. Woory free. Boom so many people are choosing a candidate based on who can beat boom trump. Get free business day shipping. This is the wrong question. At office depot, officemax and officedepot. Com nobody knows who matches up best. Voters are not good pun dits and pun dits are good pun dits. The last one which is really interesting. Its true. He said heres my proposal. Stop asking who can beat trump and ask if i could make one of them president tomorrow, who would i pick. Is that fair . The argument about electability. People like klobuchar are running on is starting to weaken. Biden was running on electability. Klobuchar and saying shes electable in purple and red. And she has done well in states like New Hampshire and New Hampshire. She doesnt do well or poll well with black and brown voters thats the path way to the nomination. The polls show she the poll from monday shows shes at 0 with black voters nationally. Even with that, who do you want to be president . Is that a better even if you dont have africanamerican support. Its a much better question to answer. I have to suggest that the people who voted so far are actually trying to communicate that to us. This is one of the hardest platforms to breakthrough with tv and a lot in the background. People are saying if biden doesnt do well we have bloomberg coming along. Situations are not being spoken about up front. Folks are telling us. Tonight and last week they are seeing candidates they are motivated sp inspired by. Sanders has one of the most resilient bases we have seen. An army. The fact he won popular vote. If that counts in iowa. And tonight the delegate vote. To me suggests that we have to pay real attention to whats a great victory tonight. Happening and stop sidelining it. As if folks dont know what it Bernie Sanders with the win is they want. We have to talk about in New Hampshire, but it was razor thin. Bloomberg. Whos right behind him and whos he wasnt on the ballot but he on life support in a crowded was. We have much more ahead. Field. Good morning and welcome to early start. A very early early start. Theres another big story we have to talk about. Im christine romans. Four federal prosecutors and im laura jarrett. Its wednesday, february 12th. Quitting the roger stone case after they were under cut by the it is 3 00 a. M. In the east, trump Justice Department. Well get new reaction to that there is an established fu and hear what the president is frontrunner in the democratic saying. Next. Race. Cnn projects Bernie Sanders winning the New Hampshire primary on the heels of a win on the popular vote in iowa. The win for sanders surprisingly tight in a state where he cleaned up just four years ago. Moderates advancing as they try to slow the partys move to the left. Pete buttigieg coming in a very close second, and applebees new irresistabowls now starting at 7. 99.

That is with enough of the precincts reporting about 99 now. We will give you this projection. Very tight race, delegate count will be very close. Remember, this is about delegates and building towards the party convention. Sanders strength not a surprise. You will hear comparisons to four years ago and what happened in 2016. He won by more than. It is not a fair metric. You have a richer field by quality and diversity of thought. Its a different race. Hooe the only candidate who can say whos part of a movement. Buttigieg strong in second place. May come out with as many delegates as sanders. The big surprise story of the night will be klobuchar. How can we understand it . Maybe through this one lens. A will the of the voters said they decided very recently within the last 48 hours. Think about that. The state of play within the party. And fridays debate was very important to them. Well, who by most accounts did a great job on friday . Klobuchar. So, she is now in third place. All right, thats what we know about New Hampshire. Well take you through as the rest of the numbers come in. There are a lot of implications. Its not the only story of the night. We have to talk about this mass exit by federal prosecutors because we believe of this case against President Trumps long time friend roger stone. Im being safer than i need to be. Prosecutors on the case. Why . The Justice Department senior officials over ruled the sentence that was originally recommended by the prosecutors for stone. And it was a recommendation that was publicly criticized by trump. So, lets bring in cnn crime and justice correspondent. This is certainly raising concern about doj independence from the president. Its exactly right. Thats the key. You have career prosecutors line prosecutors who prosecuted this case. Who got a conviction. And then filed a memorandum suggesting that the judge to sentence roger stone for seven to nine years. Theres internal battle. This happens often. There are battles within the department of justice that we dont often hear about. Whats so really strange in this and unprecedented is that they file this motion and today we get word from main justice their boss essentially. The political wing of the department of justice. Were in the happy about this recommendation. Well under cut you and put in our own recommendation. Now you have prosecutors who aligned themselves. Go ahead you do that well step away from the case. One of them out right quit from the department of justice today. You dont see this. This is so rare. So many cases here people are saying this a mutiny. You have four prosecutors aligned against the political machine of the the president of justice. Thank you very much for the details. To be very clear, i have never heard of anything like this before. This is not normal. Now, what do we also know . The president has a type of control over the people and his party and the institutions and likes of with we have not seen either. He has been unloading about the roger stone case on twitter. Hes been doing it tonight and before tonight. He said cant let this happen. Lets go to cnn white house correspondent. What are you hearing from the president . Just a short time ago President Trump suggested that roger stone should be pardoned on twitter. Previously the president had been asked about pardoning stone and said it wasnt really something he was thinking about. But lately we have seen allies and family members of stone showing up on cable news trying to plead with the president he should be pardoned of his decision by the department of justice a few hours after trump tweeted critically about the sentencing guidelines. Trump even criticizing the four prosecutors who withdrew from the case. Take a look at this tweet. Quote who are the four prosecutors, mueller people who cut and ran after being exposed for recommending a nine Year Prison Sentence to a man that got caught up in an investigation that illegal. And should never have started. 13 angry democrats. Lets break it down. Theres a nrm of things that are incorrect. First of all as you know the Mueller Investigation multiple times was verified as legal but as totally valid. Further it was started by his own Deputy Attorney general rosenstein who he appointed. Saying the prosecutors were exposed. Lets not forget the sentencing guidelines were filed in a public filing. Everybody knew what they were attempting to do. They were under cut after the president was critical about the work. Appreciate it. Lets bring in former fdeputy fi director. I have never seen anything like this. Absolutely not. Prosecutors resigning because they dont like what the boys upstairs did to their decision. Its not uncommon for prosecutors to disagree about a sentencing recommendation and debate. At the end of the day we walk forward in agreement with what gets presented to the court. Thats the key. Whats the chance of the former boss not knowing what the they were going to recommend against stone in terms of a penalty . Zero. 0 chance. Something had to change. Other than their own reckoning of whether or not tfts it was a fair call. Right. Indicated there was a vigorous debate within the office about where in the range the sentencing guidelines. The prosecutors were advocating for the higher end of the range. Which is standard in a case in which the defendant has gone to trial and lost. That results in a recommendation at the high end of the range. The new u. S. Attorney in d. C. Took some time thinking about it. But agreed with it and thats how the first filing was submitted. If it was a real disagreement the bosses went. Line prosecutors. The people working the case directly. They want seven it nine and you think its too much. Its not going to be seven to nine. Thats true. However, the bosses are typically they give a will the of deference to the recommendation to the people that actually work the case from day one and until the sentencing. Theres also a desire within the department usually until the department were currently experiencing to have the political folks stay ut of the determinations on any individual case. Lets let the prosecutors who work the case and know the evidence and defendant make an independent recommendation. Doesnt it have to be we try to be careful. We dont know for a fact that the president called barr and said fix this. How else would it happen . Hes saying he should be pardoned. First of all the president is doing the pardoning. If you want to do it, do it. This is your longest adviser and you believe its wrong. How does it happen if he doesnt call and apply pressure . To think the president s own Public Statement had no impact on the departments reversal of the position on the recommendation. This something we have seen it before. Very personally in my own situation. The president indicates on twitter for the world to see exactly what hept he wants done and the department lines up and executes the vision. We have seen it before. Thank you very much. The president is stirring up more controversy. Now its about the ronler stone case. He should be pardoned. He does the pardoning. He has to make the decision of what to do on this. Stone is his oldest adviser. Stones defense is he didnt do anything wrong and the people say anything he was doing he was doing for the benefit of the president. Well go from that back to New Hampshire. Why . How much of this vote is about donald trump and how you feel about him . How Many Democrats no matter whom they voted for were guided by exactly and almost only that .

Bernie sanders hes fighting to raise wages. And guarantee health care for all. Now, our country is at a turning point. Hard working people, betrayed by trump, struggling to survive. In this moment, we need a fighter. Bernie sanders. We know hell fight for us as president because he always has. Im Bernie Sanders and i approve this message. Were back. This is where we stand with 94 of the vote in. Your top three candidates in New Hampshire. Bernie sanders, 25. 9. The clear winner. Buttigieg close behind 24. 4. And klobuchar 19. 7 . Can you believe Elizabeth Warren is trailing klobuchar 9. 3. And the former Vice President of the United States the highest name recognition. 8. 4 of the vote. Hes been signaling he didnt think he would do well. Pulled out and rolled out and made his way to South Carolina. Lets bring back the experts. The president wasnt on the ballot. They werent necessarily voting against him. They were voting for candidates. You can bet the president s was on the folks mind casting ballots. Lets talk about this. As they did exit polls, this is what how the people who voted felt about the president. Democrats are angry. 81 , 14 dissatisfied. And then democrats, rather democrats would rather nominate a candidate who 34 agrees with yo on issues. 62 can beat donald trump. Mayor, can sanders beat trump . I dont think hes the personal most likely to beat donald trump. We have a general election coming our way. Republicans independents and democrats can vote for whoever they want. The good people of iowa and New Hampshire, it wont necessarily translate. Having said that, he would be a much better president than donald trump if he turns out to be our candidate. Did we not hear that . Amanda in about donald trump in 2016 . Did we not sit in a desk like this and people were saying the exact same thing about trump . One theory that i have explains the rise of both sanders and Pete Buttigieg and how it relates to voters perceiving them as beating trump. Both were great. They do interviews. They appear. They talk. They are ready to give answers. Bernie sanders might be a little briskly but he is there before Television Cameras telling you what he believes and what he wants to do. Pete buttigieg got on the map by having an all the above media strategy. Thats important. And i dont think thats lost on voters that they need someone who can perform well on television and defend their views. Meanwhile, joe biden, i dont think he ever sat for a sunday show with jake tapper. That tells voters something. That theyre not willing to fully put themselves out there. We were talking about it before the show. Chris cuomo and i were talking about it. You didnt see Elizabeth Warren out as much. If you listened to the interviews, im sure you heard the howard stern interview with Hillary Clinton. She said the one big mistake i made, one big mistake was not owning the media landscape like donald trump did. Not putting myself out there and doing the interviews and being too cautious. Sometimes i feel like Elizabeth Warren, a little too cautious. Im going to do, im going on msnbc where its safe. Where buttigieg has been on everything. On the view, on cnn, msnbc, he even says hell go on fox. So that does make a difference. The thing with warren, she started to come out of her shell. She did a town hall with us in jackson, mississippi. Maybe april or may of last year. She was very cautious. She started to come out of her shell. She doesnt seem attracted to these national interviews. She would rather do these rallies where she takes the selfies, these pictures, and she feels like thats where shes connecting. Clearly that didnt work. It didnt work tonight. I want to say one thing about Democratic Unity and poke some holes in the idea of Democratic Unity. That trump will win. Right now, trump looks like he will win. Of course we wont have democratic unit right now. We had 11 candidates running today that were killing each other. And its a primary. Women, look, you have to show that you can attack one another in order to show that you can attack trump. What did we see this week . They attacked one another and what did we see . Results. What did we see . Donald trump go after bloomberg. We saw something about Pete Buttigieg. We see hes going after joe biden when he thinks he can keep punching, he thinks biden is going down. That says something about donald trump being concerned about being elected himself. I dont think i would write off the Democratic Party right now in the sense that we all have, thinking that it is inevitable trump can win. I think that number, 81 says a lot. They are angry. I dont believe it is inevitable at all that donald trump will win. I think we could lose it and i think, i dont think he would count him out. It is the democrats to lose. Theyll be running on an issue like health care. And donald trump will take away preexisting conditions. That will be a unified message on the democratic side. People dont know how to approach the Bernie Sanders lead. In 2016, they completely butchered this and didnt make the supporters or dells feel included or part of the process. Now way they can lose, if the party isnt united. If Bernie Sanders isnt the nominee and if his supporters dont feel like theyre included in the party. That goes the other way as well. All of them talked about warren and sanders, we need unite the party. You hear it from the candidates and thats important and i home they say that. There is Something Different thats going on at the Grassroots Level and i dont think it is fully healed yet. I do want to say, i do believe we are united as a party. I would say i think many of our democrats right now voting are probably more in our head than weve ever been before. A lot less in our hearts and a lot more in our head. The stakes are so high. You hear people talking about, what is his name from louisiana . What is why are democrats, ty are becoming an ideological cult. They should be talking about health care, an economy that is not really good and how Trump Administration is not telling the truth about the economy. But theyre closing on the obama economy. Theyre not creating as many jobs. The deficit is higher but theyre letting the republicans get away, the Trump Administration get away with the language. I would say based on my conversations with voters across all the early states and even the super tuesday states, it doesnt exist on the ground. You see it between klobuchar and warren, between buttigieg and sanders. When you talk on voters, they dont see it. Get to the break. Well talk about the all important hunt for delegates. The all important prize. Where does it stand after New Hampshire . The ups and downs of frequent mood swings can plunge you into deep, depressive lows. crying take you to uncontrollable highs. muffled arguing or, make you feel both at once.

The way these things work, the next 4 may not get it until tomorrow morning but a very clear picture emerging. Once again, Bernie Sanders strong on top. In iowa, bernie and buttigieg. Once again, buttigieg overperforming. Even though did he well in iowa, you have to be surprise bid this finish. The story of the night. Amy klobuchar now in third place. Elizabeth warren in fourth. Way back. Warren have been thinking she maybe competing. What does this tell us . Klobuchar coming up. One, a lot of people decided recently. Who did wol friday . Amy klobuchar by most accounts did well. You see it. Can she sustain . Joe biden not even in the state. Hes down in South Carolina. His Opening Statement to them was, i hope you guys love me as much as i love you. He needs good results in nevada and South Carolina. Weve never seen the presumptive favorite finish way he did. Bernie crushed it against Hillary Clinton here. You could make the argument that he could have been expected to do even better tonight based on how he did four years ago. How did he do . Basically, hes from a neighboring state, from vermont. If you look back at 2016, it was a blowout. Hillary clinton won a total of four townships. You look at that border. This is all light blue and that means Bernie Sanders. He crushed this state in 2016. Now, look. The caveat, 2020 is not an apples to apples. There was a lot of money flowing into the state. If you want to know why Bernie Sanders is up by 4,000 votes as opposed to 20 plus he was a in 2016. One of the places ive been keeping an eye on is strong holds bernie had in 2016. Townships where more than 100 people voted, he won by more than 67 . So what ive isolated here. Anything you see with color, those areas that were strong holds. What is interesting is you see the light green of Pete Buttigieg, dark green of Amy Klobuchar. The idea that these candidates were able to cut into the areas that Bernie Sanders didnt just win i won by huge margins. And when you can cut away at those margins, you see why it was a close race. 26 for Bernie Sanders, that is the lowest vote share for a New Hampshire vote in recent history. The reason is because buttigieg and klobuchar were able to cut into the strong holds. The top line story, Bernie Sanders won. The reason it was close, the reason it was spread out was because Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar were able to cut into the strongholds. Here theyre going to get an even cut of they will. Sanders did very strong in the popular vote. It is the state delegates. And buttigieg edged him out there. Klobuchar is a surprise story. Maybe that goes to people saying they decided most recently, shes done very well. Very interesting to put in it context. This is a chance well see what we thought. Equal or greater enthusiasm to 2016. Which i think every democrat was hoping for. The turnout wasnt necessarily there. Were not quite sure where it is in a finale perspective. Not sure if it will approach 2008. One thing is the great muddle here. If youre Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg, you feel good. Take a look at the delegates on the whole here. Pete buttigieg, 23, Bernie Sanders, 21. They tied tonight. If you go into New Hampshire and you look at the demographics, well full demographics of iowa and New Hampshire. You hear a lot from joe biden. Hes not even being subtle about it. Where hes going and why that matters. Iowa, 91 white. New hampshire, people in white. Very small latino and black population. Whats coming next . Nevada and South Carolina. This is statewide. These numbers will be higher in terms of minority voters. You have 20 in nevada. A higher number when you go down to the primary. It will be much bigger. When you talk about whats next for candidates, not just Bernie Sanders but also for Pete Buttigieg. You look at his voting with black voters, Amy Klobuchar with black voters. These two states for Amy Klobuchar, huge in terms of getting them out of gate. Momentum matters, klobuchar has proven that. What happens next . What are the coalitions Going Forward . If youre Bernie Sanders and you cant get past 30 . Nowhere near the 60 that you had in 2016. How do you show that this has gotten you the lead, has put you in a great position in the race. It can broaden out. Right now, Bernie Sanders is the only one identified with a Major Movement that hes the head of. Which one will do it in to win the presidency without being seen as a proxy for something bigger than yourself. So here i am, delegates, delegates matter. Earlier i was talking about bernies strength. Two in a row for him. No. Iowa, popular vote, yes. But the delegate count, no. Buttigieg beat him. By. 1 of 1 . So thats a first look at the delegates tonight out of New Hampshire. 24 delegates at stake. Weve been able to allocate them all. As see, buttigieg split them evenly. Klobuchar gets 6. You have to remember. Democrats award the delegates proportionately. You get above 15 in a congressional district, you win delegates on that. If you have close contests like this one, youve going on split delegates. It is very hard to build a real delegate lead unless you are either in a 2 contest and youre really winning substantially. But in a field like this, it will be hard to get a real substantial delegate lead. Now lets look at the delegates including iowa. 1 of 1 advantage. You see buttigieg at 23. Sanders at 21. Warren from 8. She got nothing tonight. 7 from klobuchar. 1 out of iowa, 6 tonight. And 6 for biden. The former president of the United States who got a third of the vote tonight that Bernie Sanders got in New Hampshire. No delegate. Hes down to 6 in that estimate. It is a slight advantage, two delegate advantage. These contests are not about delegates. You need 1991 delegates to win the nomination. This is beginning of a very long road. 65 of the delegates are at stake. These early contrasts about building momentum, having a reason to move forward, being able to raise money, sty in the game. And bragging rights. It is really a buttigieg, sanders race at the moment. Im going to ask you some is it fair questions. Do you say, look at the field. Look at his strength. Hes on top. And the person they thought would be their nominee going into this is in like 11th place. I dont think it is about fairness. I dont think it is the best analysis is what i would say. Were in such a different environment. In a twoperson race against Hillary Clinton. That was a very different race. The most important thing is, when that race happened, donald trump was just a person running for president. No one knew he would be the president , let alone democrats concerned with an existential threat to the country. Thats what theyre thinking now in New Hampshire. It is not who do i like the most. It is who do i think can beat trump . That is so hard to figure out. Especially if these two states. Theyre so not representative of who the democrat Everything Party is. But you see them going to bernie. I like sanders and im voting for him. Thats not how people are voting. I would say the other thing in the exit polls, we saw overwhelmingly they want a trump defeater. We saw that the quality that most many a plurality of voters went for is a change agent. That means change from donald trump. More than somebody who understands my problems, more than wanting a uniter in the country, to heal the divisiveness. This notion of bring me change. I dont know how long it will be the case. You start to have expectations. And i think two in a row, well see what happens with nevada and South Carolina. Very different states. However, we do have to look at the context of what tonight means in terms of what weve seen in the past. I agree with kirstens analysis. Looking at how the performance now relates to what weve seen in the past that proved to be successful in earlier president ial contests. What can you tell us . Yeah. Look. That 26 that 26 is the lowest by far. At 29 , that was the lowest previously. We could argue about whether or not it is a weak performance for sanders but i think you cant argue that this field is totally, totally muddled, christopher. So is it fair to compare this to the other ones because of the size of the feed, the strength of the field, and the existential nature of the question before the field, which is, they were running against somebody they really feared, the incumbent, by trump . Obviously, he was running against one person in Hillary Clinton. It was a 57 crowded field. Look at donald trump on the republican side four years ago. That was a very crowded field and he won that by 20 points. I think it is important to put these into context and recognize, this is a crowded field. But also, ask yourself the question, why is this field so crowded . Perhaps because they all think they can win because there is no clear frontrunner and im not sure Bernie Sanders answer that had question adequately. The mendoza line. Who is it named after . What is the line . Essentially, the line in baseball. Not essentially. What is it . The line in baseball. Batting. 200. If youre batting below there, that is a very, very bad percentage to be batting. You want to be batting above that. The first name i cant quite remember. Dont wait for them to tell you. I know what youre trying to do. They cant google that it fast. Thing trick in anchoring. This is not who wants to be a millionaire. Phone a friend. Im the friend. Mario mendoza. I remember because his friends were so upset because his career batting average it was. 215 and they didnt like that they set it at. 200. Well done. Heres the other question. And he know this is far down. The idea of a contested convention. If you keep seeing that other than sanders, you have this muddle as ron brown calls it. What does that take you to . I think it could well be spicy. This is a hard thing. Ive looked at the math. Were at a 3. 5 in 10 chance that yes, we will have a contested convention which means no one will have a majority of delegates going into milwaukee and that number is climbing higher and higher and higher. We dont know the picture for the democrats. But at least going into this commercial, you know what the mendoza line is now. Bernie sanders once again, edging out competition tonight. Thats the story of tonight. Sanders pulling off a win in New Hampshire. Does this mean hes right . A revolution is coming. Realistic . Next. Applebees new irresistabowls now starting at 7. 99.

When insurance is affordable, its surprisingly painless. Let me say tonight that this victory here is the beginning of the end for donald trump. Were going to nevada, to South Carolina, were going to win those states as well. A very good night for Bernie Sanders giving his victory speech in manchester, New Hampshire. Happening not too long ago. You can see hes at the top of the leader board but not by much. And Amy Klobuchar, 19. 8. Clearly making the biggest rise among the candidates here. So lets bring back our panel of experts. Well talk about where were going. It looks like hell be the clear winner. I think he was declared the clear winner. He promised a re looks. Hes performing not as well as did he in 2017 and bringing in fewer voters. I think he deserves credit for performing extremely well in iowa and winning tonight but he hasnt expanded the electorate. Yes, there are a lot of candidates in the race. Thats what people will say. But he didnt even win among people who were first time voters. According to the entrance polls, Pete Buttigieg won among first time voters. So i dont think weve seen the re looks quite yet. Maybe well see it in South Carolina or nevada but i dont think he brought an overwhelming group of new people into the system. He needs to expand his support within the existing revolution. Ill say it. The people who voted in the general are not the same who vote in the primaries. He won the first two. You need 1991 delegates. Even if you do window over. He didnt win. He won the popular vote. If you look at the numbers, about who got the votes. The people selfdescribed as moderates. Except when you look at the issues, these are very, very progressive majority positions that voters came down on. I dont think that this is as large of a philosophical divide when people are showing up in the early states as a lot of us like to think. I dont draw the conclusion that when you add up all the moderate candidates, won out over progressive candidates. You saw some candidates move from Elizabeth Warren to Amy Klobuchar. Nobody would say that theyre philosophically alined across some of the major issues. I would say we have a long road to go. There are still momentous opportunities for their to be great shift between who is at the leaderboard here. In fact, next week, that leaderboard could be filmed lit. I dont know that for a fact but as you look at the it appears to be the walt of the liberals and the moderates. Give me something. I think that unfortunately is keeping us in our corners in some ways. The reason it hasnt shown up like we might think, the communities under which Bernie Sanders is genuinely talking on are frankly from much more diverse backgrounds of those folks have not spoken up yet. A majority of white and pretty privileged. Not everybody but across the board of higher income, Higher Education states. I think thats great. I dont want to say that white voters dont matter. They actually do. The majority of the people who end up voting. I would close on this to say that there are a lot of issues that Bernie Sanders and his base have given voice to that i think will find greater resonance. When you hear, we were getting ready. When you heard Bernie Sanders say, were going to cancel all student debt. Wait, whoa wow what does revolution mean . The first time you hear it. Yeah. Sounds good. When you look at that speech, hes saying he wants dramatic economic its transformation. I question the wisdom of taking the fight to donald trump on the economy. The economy is the one thing donald trump has going for him. And you can take these things, of course health care is too spemsive. Could go is too expensive bust are the solutions something that the main stream public will accept . He is at the radical end of the Democratic Party on those solutions and i think a lot of people wont find them workable. When the democrats say they want to beat trump, why would they fight how many this issue . I dont think, i dont think that is the fight being had right now. Given that they want change. People want change. They do want change. Okay. I have a friend who says this. You can weigh in on this. We were talking about a revolution. He said students wants to talk revel looks because they have no real idea how dicey socialism is and theyve never had to pay you know what, zero. I would say your friend is articulating a fear that a number of house democrats, people who have, are older, fear that they have as well. House democrats supporting biden. Theyre supporting biden, candidates more like klobuchar as well and they say theyre very nervous today about what theyre seeing in the performance of specifically a candidate like biden. Because they are worried about what a candidate like sanders means for down ballot democrats. The democrats that won in red districts. But again, when youre talking to voters on the ground, and i know it is main reply reporters were talking on democratic voters. But they are itching for dramatic change. And they are constantly talking about it. They are constantly talking about health care and not being happy with the status quo on health care either. You know, let me just, i think this is very simply answered. And i think the facts are simple and i think we overanalyze this into the ground. A couple things. When we say, are we ready for a revolution . We dont even know what the defense significance is. I would say if you look at the Bernie Sanders revolution, he has been successful. He has raised an incredible amount of money. He has pushed the four biggest issues that we are now talking about for the Democratic Party as the forefront issues. He will scare cloots are more business oriented. So lets not take back the idea that democrats are not, are just as angry as Trump Supporters were back in 2016. Trump looks inevitable. I dont think he is inevitable. I think nobody is inevitable. I think Bernie Sanders does have a ceiling but he can punch through it because he can harness ang entire political activism. You talked about that. He has really set the agenda for the issues that the Democratic Party is talking about. Right . Trump did the same thing in 2016. This is from the former ceo of sach goldman. Sanders is just as polarizing as trump. Hell ruin our economy and doesnt care about our military. If im russian, big sanders this time around. If i were the sanders campaign, i would retweet that. Say, billionaires dont like me. I think as sanders becomes the clear frontrunner, people will dig into what his proclamations and promises mean and were seeing that in nevada. The next state. The culinary union, the most powerful in nevada, they endorsed obama in 2008. They have a huge organizational base there. They put on it a flyer, a mail piece that said Bernie Sanders will take away your health care as you know it. Thats the kind of thing. A lot of them are democrats. That will come from republicans, from other people and that scares people. Let me see if i can articulate that. The only choices are not just status quo and revolution. The country can have drama change but it doesnt have to be revolutionary. There is a lot of room between those two. I think we can come out in big numbers to do it. By the time the election comes around, people will be exhausted with what President Trump has dishld us to. By the time the election comes around . Bernie has done an incredible job of harnessing a tremendous amount of support but it is not so overwhelming. He will be the nominee and he will scare a lot of people. Well see. I dont think we know, until we get to super tuesday, we should know a lot more in three weeks. In october, Bernie Sanders almost died. And he fought back. And look where he is. This guy is a fighter. Were going to talk about that. Is that an issue . We were talking about that. It was an issue for Hillary Clinton on her health. If a woman was on the campaign trail and had a heart attack, would we be talking about it . Would it count someone out . It certainly hasnt counted Bernie Sanders out. Bernie sanders is the clear winner tonight. 97. 5 of the vote in. Mayor buttigieg, 24. 4. Amy klobuchar, 19. 8. Dont go away. We have much more to come on the results in New Hampshire. Next, well have an update on a major story were following out of d. C. Four federal prosecutors have now quit the roger stone case after the trump Justice Department undercuts him. What is going on .

Heres another big story, deserves our attention. All four federal prosecutors have now resigned from the case against long time trump confidante roger stone. Now, the objection question, why in heres what happened. The Justice Department reduced the original sentencing recommendation for stone following public criticism by the president. Coincidence . Obviously not. Walk us through what happened and how we got to you. All right. In the last days or so, as prosecutors were getting ready to file their motion, their statements about what they wanted to see the judge sentence roger stone, there were discussions, were told, at the department of justice, behind closed doors. Some folks disagreeing. Senior level people disagreeing with what the line prosecutors wanted to see. So something happened along the way. The line prosecutors, the four who investigated roger stone, the four prosecutors who took roger stone to trial. Got a conviction against roger stone. They filed the sentencing memorandum of where they tell the judge, theyre on the high end here so keep that in mind. They tell the judge they would think that roger stone should be sentenced anywhere from seven to nine years in prison. Well, that happens yesterday, around 5 00 or so. And then today we get word that the political, senior level people at main justice, the department of justice, decided that the sentencing guide lines at the recommendations were too high. So they said, were going to undercut these four prosecutors and well file our own motion. Our own memorandum saying you shouldnt sentence him to seven to nine. Thats excessive. And then what happens, as all of this is developing, we start hearing word that prosecutors, they start filing notices with the cord that theyre all stepping away from this case. One by one. All together. They step away from the case. And then even resigned completely from the department of justice. So these guys here, all of them, unified. Really a mutiny when you think about this. They all got together. They stepped away from the case. One guy resigned. And now well see. Roger stone will be in court next being. There is a lot more to happen. Ultimately this will be up to the judge and it will be interesting to see how she reacts. It clearly sets up as a question of conscience for these four prosecutors. It leads to a question, why did this change with the sentence of questioning . That leads to the politics. For that, lets go to white house correspondent, boris sanchez. The president has been venting about this since it started. They are accuse. They made a decision about the sentencing guidelines president. The president was tweeting critically about them. He has criticized these we prosecutors all while denying that he had any influence over the department of justices friendly treatment of his long time confidante roger stone. They are withdrawing jesse from serving. She was the top official in the u. S. Attorneys office overseeing this roger stone case. One of the four we spoke to not dismissing that it was connected to the stone issue. But giving as you clear obvious indication of why the withdrawal took place. We should point out, she was set to testify before a Senate Committee on thursday before it was withdrawn. All right. Thank you. We laid out our understanding. First, have you ever heard of anything like this happening before . First a prosecutor in 2004 . So 16 years ago. Never seen this. Bonkers. Okay. So just to make the record clear, am i right this is the way it usually works. Im working the actual case. Youre the bigs. I finished the case. I want to make a sentencing rep dags. You know what that recommendation is and we discuss in house. But i do not make that recommendation until you decide thats the recommendation to make. It goes slightly further than that. A lot of times highpowered defense attorney comes in, like this sentence is going to be too high. Ive sad in on those meetings. They never want to overturn. They dont want to overturn the lower people. When you fight government, you are asking for the high end of the range that is often set by you guys to defendants, if you take to us trial on this and you lose. But just to reinforce this point, the idea that this was organic. This goes in excruciating detail. A lot of people think 7 to 9 years. We think hes a bad guy. Weist july throw 7 to 9 years at him. It is quite scientific. An individual is convicted of an offense. And then based on the the crime, Little Things tick it up. So that is there a threat of violence as we saw in this case. If it is his own case. If it is a pattern. All these things take sentence up. What the prosecutors landed on was a seven to nineyear sentence. Wasnt just arbitrary. Was tight harsh . I wont say that. There is a bigger question to be had, are the sentencing guidelines themselves as theyre written now, fair . Thats a question for congress and the u. S. Sentencing commission. It is not for me to say, i think it is not nice. Ill saying, does sentence match the calculations . It does. It is on the high end. When i first heard, that i thought it was high. I didnt think the judge would set it that high. The chance that it was put out there rogue, and that the higherups didnt have a chance to weigh in. Zero. So that has to lead to us one factual conclusion. They changed their mind for political reason, not prosecutorial reason. It is hard to see how it is anything other than that. In a case this high profile, with the defendant this prominent in a matter of such national prominence, there would be meetings at the highest levels to make sure all the is were dotted and the ts were crossed. So they cape up with, not everybody is on the same page. It is preposterous. In their watered down level with the second one, it doesnt change the analysis. It is not like we didnt take this into account. It merely just changes their mind. It says we wont make the recommendation as to sentencing. They dont put a number on it. You know whats interesting about this, it is what is the motivating interest . Lets say he went over there and said i dont like this sentence. He didnt pardon hip either. And hes said, he should be pardoned. As if it was some collective effort. He does it. And here is stone. We call him his old confidante. Roger stone is the oldest political adviser that this president has. He doesnt keep people around him very long. Google and you will see what im talking about. Roy cohen has passed. Roger stone is the oldest since then. If he really wanted to help hip, he wouldnt have done it this way. Thank you for your perspective on how the usually works. Bernie sanders declares victory in New Hampshire. The numbers seem to bear it out. Right on his heels, Pete Buttigieg. The first two races. Wildly overperforming. People saying he could be the right choice. 2 between them. Lets take a look what the is fueling buttigiegs rise. Next. Very differently.

When insurance is affordable, its surprisingly painless. I admired senator sanders when i was in high school, i respect him today and i congratulate him on his strong showing tonight. And i want warren, Vice President biden and all of our Democratic Candidates and supporters. And i know that we all share the spirit that we heard from some of our volunteers at a poll site earlier today who welcomed a competing candidate with chants of, vote blue no matter who. We are on the same team. That young man right there, won iowa and is coming in second in New Hampshire. 97 of the vote in. Bernie sanders is the winner. Almost 26 of the vote and you see everybody else falling in line right there. Who would have thunk . A mayor on of 100,000 people, a city in the midwest of 100,000 people, winning the first caucus, coming in second, pretty close to first and here we are, a virtual newcomer coming out of nowhere. Lets come back to lets bring it back to the group here. Yeah, don, weve been talking a lot tonight about listening to the electorate and hearing what theyre telling us. I dont think we can sit here and say Bernie Sanders is the far and away frontrunner without saying Pete Buttigieg, as you just said, won iowa. He came within 4,500 votes of beating Bernie Sanders, who won by a huge margin just four years ago. He also won across he had very even support among democratic groups, among age, among College Educated and nonCollege Educated. Hes benefiting yearly from people being late breakers in this raise, and thats what theyre betting on. And the people who did make up their minds later on made up their minds later on. Toward him, right . And theyre betting on that moving into nevada and moving into South Carolina. He has a lot of resources. He has a lot of staff on the ground. Hes on the air. No question theres a hurdle. He has to do well among nonwhite voters. But well see. And we shouldnt predict the outcome. As i was listening to his speech tonight i kept waiting for him to say yes, we can. Fired up. I think its amazing that mayor pete has done what hes done. Andrew can tell you this as well. We always talk about why we think mayors are really in a good position to actually serve in the presidency, because of the kind of work we do. And petes demonstrate aid really smart, keen way of campaigning, both in iowa and New Hampshire, that has resonated. So we have talked about the energy that bernie has. Petes got game. Hes got a lot of Energy Behind him too. And the numbers tonight reflect it. Bernie won i think four years ago, he won this state really big. He didnt win it as big as he did last time. And pete actually is right there too. Its quite an amazing showing for him. Has he been tested . Hes been tested back in his own community, and i think people are still making judgments about how they feel he fared in some of those tests, but clearly there is something to it with him certainly with these early states. But i would even go beyond that that hes amassed a nationwide fundraising network. Ive traveled, you know, given speeches in other places and repeatedly i hear from folks that they find him interesting, they want to hear more, they find him inspirational. The test will be, obviously, as we move further south and in diverse parts of this country whether or not he will have resonance in those constituencies. And i cant actually put a finger on why it isnt working, but something about it so far has not gelled well, particularly for voters of color. You bring up something that i think is a very fair point because also we have to remember, also, president obama, then candidate obama, even in the Africanamerican Community didnt really take him seriously until he started winning. Well, he had to show and again, this is true for black voters, period, which is were not going to get behind any old body just because you happen to be africanamerican. Youve got to show and demonstrate you have the capacity to win. Which he did. And once that happened the floodgates but obama was also showing already movement in South Carolina among black voters before we got to South Carolina, even before iowa voted he was showing movement. Buttigieg has not shown any movement with black voters. So let me ask you let me pose this question to you. Because he brings up a good point i use of my mother and her friends, who are staunch democrats, always vote. Right . I ask them about certain people they go oh, yes, thats great. I asked her about biden. She loves biden. She thinks its great he served with obama. I said what if its not bideen . She said its definitely bloomberg. I said what about stop and frisk . She said can he beat trump . Thats what matters to her. I said what about buttigieg . And she goes, i dont know. Hes smart. But i dont know. And thats what youre saying, but i dont know. I think that if buttigieg were the nominee would voters like your mother probably get behind him . Yes. Because as weve talked about this entire night democrats clearly want to beat trump and that is their number one issue. And so it appears as though whoever the nominee is they would be the problem is as you know additive. Right. Can buttigieg make up the ground that he is sorely lacking when it comes to black voters as well as latinos . In november i was talking to latinos on the ground in nevada who just either had never heard of him or felt as though hent speaking to them at all or making the time to speak to them at all. When we talk about the africanamerican vote and buttigieg, lets assume that buttigieg gets the nomination for the purposes of this discussion. This part of the discussion. Arent we going to see barack obama come out and say im with this guy and i want you all to be with this guy . And im not saying Barack Obamas going to turn on the faucet and thats it. But are we not going to see that from the Africanamerican Community . Are we going to see the great mayor of tallahassee out there . Almost everybody on this panel who are democrats. The problem is is were not there is a base of democrats who are going to vote, yes, because theyre animated, they are angry about trump. But the issue is were not there yet. Is that what youre saying . Its not just that were not there yet. There are people who are pretty down on politics. 4 million folks who checked out between 12 and 16. They have not seen the results that they have been promised. And they have chosen to refrain from participation. So were not in guess, what we resulted in an electoral victory for donald trump. So the question for me is are you adding more to the table that gets you over that hurdle than what it is that youre losing . Im interested in the candidate who is actually going to demonstrate that they can bring more folks into this process than we are going to if you use that metric, real quick, you look at the lense of the 2018 midterm elections and you look for a more moderate type candidate that can go into those red suburbs and make the argument to possibly Republican Voters to come over. That looks like a candidate thats more like ralph northam, doug jones, kristen sinema. It doesnt look like Bernie Sanders. That is one theory of change. Thats if youre only playing with the people on the board in 12016. Were talking about 2012 numbers, 2008 numbers where you had 4 million more voters who participated in the process and resulted in a pretty transformational leader in barack obama. But you will never have an opportunity to get Republican Voters in 2020 like youve ever had before. You will have that chance thats a very good point. If that were true then why didnt we see more senators, republican senators cross over on this Impeachment Vote . The republicans i think are far too i dont think we give them credit for being much more aligned, much more lockstep behind this guy than what they really are. And much more to come and were going to also talk a little bit more about mayor Pete Buttigieg because as you and i were talking about the question for a lot of people, and i think you were more eloquent than i was, is youre a millennial. What has taken you so long to have a relationship and an understanding of the black experience in this country . That is the question for many africanamericans when it comes to mayor Pete Buttigieg. They give the older folks a little more leeway because theyre older and theyve gone through maybe gone through racial issues, the Civil Rights Movement and on and on and on and jim crow. But a younger person they cant quite put their finger on it, they dont understand. Were going to continue to talk about it. Bernie sanders pulls off a narrow win in New Hampshire but hes far from pulling away from the fear. Look at the numbers up on your screen right now.

The New Hampshire primary, first primary in the season for both sides, is just about over. 97 now the estimated vote. You know, this little amount at the end takes longer to come in than you might expect. We might not have 100 until sometime later this morning. However, the story is the tale at the top. Bernie sanders, Pete Buttigieg tied up once again. Look how close it is once again. In iowa buttigieg wound up coming out with more delegates. Tonight we believe theyll get the same number. But Bernie Sanders the only one in this pack who can say that he is at the head of a movement. But then what had been called a muddle now has Pete Buttigieg making a strong play, 2 out of 2. A lot of people talking about his electability. So the question becomes how did we get sneer why is it like this . Lets go to phil mattingly. Everybody knows Bernie Sanders whooped it up here against Hillary Clinton. Very different race this time. How did it go . Very different race because theres a lot more candidates. Its a different race not just because Bernie Sanders didnt win by 20plus points, its a different race because its a Different Number of candidates, Different Number of ground ofrpgss but first lets take a look at 2016 and show you just how significant the victory Bernie Sanders had over Hillary Clinton, former secretary of state. She only won four townships. Bernie sanders won everything else. The light blue, thats Bernie Sanders. That was a great night for Bernie Sanders. Bernie sanders once again this time around winning but significantly closer, only winning by about 4,000 votes, 97 reporting. So why did Bernie Sanders win tonight . Might not have been as big but still has the he will gas, still has the popular vote. One thing you want to keep an eye on, place centers. When youre looking at concord, when youre looking at manchester, nashua, Bernie Sanders won all three. Thats obviously important for him but he also not unlike 2016 had big wins in Public University towns, places like plymouth throughout the state that are big for the types of voters that Bernie Sanders wants to get. Thats Bernie Sanders. But why was it so close . This is where it gets interesting. Take a look at what Pete Buttigieg was able to do. If you see light green, thats Pete Buttigieg. If you see light green over here, thats significant. Why . Bernie sanders is from the state right next door. You win border towns, and he swept border towns in 2016. Pete buttigieg was able to make headway in a lot of those border towns and also in these very populous areas down here. So thats Pete Buttigieg. You also cant ignore what Amy Klobuchar did tonight, obviously putting up nearly 20 , 55,000 votes, 56,000 votes. A lot of momentum from that debate. She was winning townships as well. And winning townships that traditionally lean republican, this kind of insight into what she was pushing for. Part of the hidden story here, right . Is that the democrats start their race off in two states that have more registered republicans than democrats and not reflective of the diversity they say their party is about, which is of course what biden is holding out for. Let me ask you something. Very interesting. Sanders, well talk a little more about how well he did here versus what weve seen historically even if accounting for a big field. But buttigieg and bernie are about as opposite in the field as you can get. They represent almost exactly opposite things and yet theyre knotted up at the top. Why . Heres the interesting thing. You think about that, ideologically not aligned. Not even close. They want Different Things and they have very different pitches and thats part of what they believe their appeal is. So you can go through and actually start looking. Whats the most interesting thing, chris, about the top three candidates you see here is that it was static throughout the course of the entire state. Take a look at Bernie Sanders. Where was he first . Obviously the light blue here. What about where he was second . You see the map fill in a little more. A lot more light green where Pete Buttigieg was. They were running first and second in the majority of the state. Where was he third . You can do the same thing for Pete Buttigieg, Amy Klobuchar. You see that for the most part New Hampshire was a threeperson race and those three people right here are the top three in the state, chris. All right. Thank you very much, phil. So what an interesting story. You just have to keep thinking about Pete Buttigieg now and how much he overperformed and now were going to have to stop saying that after two results. Now it will be about what the expectation is. Harry entin, cnn has projected that Bernie Sanders is going to win the primary right around 26 . Is it fair to take a look at that 26 as it stacks up historically . I mean, i think it is fair. And if you stack it up to where it is historically its the lowest percentage ever won by a winning candidate in a nonincumbent democratic primary in the modern era. Its lower than jimmy carter, lower than the Mario Mendoza line as we pointed out earlier. Look, this to me is a sign of a very muddled primary currently. That is, you go back to iowa, there were four candidates who finished above 15 . That was the first time that ever happened in the iowa caucuses. And this result tonight of Bernie Sanders just getting 26 of the vote and comparing that historically is another sign of the muddled nature of this primary. Have we seen races in the past where you had this many good candidates . I mean, look, whats the definition of good . Good is something you can tell through the rearview mirror, right . But this is not an example you know, theyll say, well, hes running against so many candidates. Keep in mind edwin muskie was running against a ton of candidates in 1972 and muskie got 46 of the vote. And of course he was from next door in maine. The other thing ill point out donald trump in 2016 he was running against a slew of candidates but remember, he won that primary by about 20 percentage points, got about 35 of the vote. So this 26 to me not necessarily a strong sign for sanders. Though a win is a win. I wasnt impressed with the muskie thing but you are right, donald trump did emerge from a huge field. Nevada and South Carolina. How large did they loom and why . They loom very, very large. Why . Take a look at the demographics. Iowa, New Hampshire almost completely white. But look at nevada. Look at the entrance poll from 2016. Only 59 of the iowa caucus im sorry, of the nevada caucusgoers in 2016 were white. 19 were latino. 13 from africanamerican. If there is one state of the four states that vote early on the democratic side that looks most like the rest of the democratic primary electorate, it is in fact nevada. It you do well in nevada, youre probably going to do well nationwide. Flip forward to South Carolina. What do you see there . You see the majority of that democratic electorate back in 2016 was africanamerican. 61 . Of course africanamerican voters are the base of the democratic primary season. So to me this is a state obviously joe biden wants to do very, very well in. Thats the group hes done best among. If he doesnt do well in South Carolina, his bid is probably adiosa meegos, goodbye, see you later. And now well means Something Different, right . Because these two first results are worse than people expected. So now thats going to mean the expectation for South Carolina is bigger. All right. So do this, quickly. Go through how these first two results have changed odds to win. Yeah. Take a look at Bernie Sanders, right . He now has a majority chance of getting the highest number of delegates going into milwaukee at 5. 5 in 10. Before iowa and New Hampshire vote td was just 3 in 10. Lets flip forward to somebody else. Take a look at buttigieg. He is now at a 1 in 10 shot to get most amount of delegates going into milwaukee. That is up slightly from a 0. 5 in 10 before iowa and New Hampshire voted. Take a look here. Take a look at michael bloomberg. Hes at a 1 in 10 chance dmou to have most delegates going into milwaukee. That was just a. 5 in 10 shot before iowa. Weve seen his National Poll numbers improve pretty dramatically, actually. And Amy Klobuchar, shes at a. 5 in 10 shot thats not particularly high but its certainly higher than where she was before iowa when it was just a. 1 in 10 shot of getting the most amount of delegates going into milwaukee. Contested convention. Do you bielt my head off or is there a chance . I think theres a real shot if im being honest with you. In fact i might argue this graphics a little low if im looking at some of what my other friends have been saying. 3. 5 in 10 chance yes, we will have a contested contention have i means no one will have a majority of delegates going into milwaukee. The truth is this is the thing that political folks like me dream about and its never really a true possibility. This year, christopher, i really believe it could happen. Thank you very much. Harry enten, always a pleasure. Youre going to have to hear about senator Amy Klobuchar. She did well in the debate but now a finish like this in New Hampshire, shes in the conversation. Third place, strong, ahead of Elizabeth Warren, ahead of biden. Now, the Campaign Says its going to expand because toward super tuesday she has momentum. How much can she capitalize on this klomentum . Not my word. Next. [ indistinct talking ] a new kind of investor is changing things up. With an app thats changing the way we do money.

Im Amy Klobuchar, and i will beat donald trump. My heart my heart is full tonight. My heart is full tonight. While there are still ballots left to count, we have beaten the odds every step of the way. We have done it on the merits. We have done it with ideas. And we have done it with hard work. Because we are resilient and strong as the people of this great nation. You have got to give senator Amy Klobuchar her due. There she is in New Hampshire. At 19. 8 . Shes up there with Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg, beating out the former Vice President and another sitting senator, senator Elizabeth Warren. Everyone probably thought Elizabeth Warren would be in the position that Amy Klobuchars in. So you have to give her her due. Back with my experts. The last time we saw Amy Klobuchar with that big a smile on her face she was in the Manchester Airport arriving. It was last week. Arriving in the airport. She was saying im punching above my weight class. We were like wait, youre still fourth or fifth. But i said, ive been saying, mark preston, she has defied gravity. Maybe not gravity but shes definitely survived. Shes beat the odds. Because everyone thought she would be out by now. She hadnt been polling that high in nationally among democrats and independents Amy Klobuchars at 4 . Don, lets go back to february 2019 when you did your first town hall in New Hampshire. We all talk about the pete town hall which clearly that took him off. You know, that scene in the town hall. You might even be able to go back and look at how Amy Klobuchar introduced herself to the nation. When she went and did the town hall in New Hampshire that you moderated, she was able to talk about her issues in a way that wasnt outside in a blaring snowstorm. And i wonder if other candidates, as we talk in between break and how these campaigns are working and whos been successful, who hasnt been successful, if you look at Amy Klobuchar, look her success has just been basically hard work, put her nose to the grindstone, had no money, literally has no money, had to fly commercial back and forth between iowa and d. C. During the Impeachment Vote while the other candidates were flying privately. Its a testament to the campaign. It really is a testament to her hard work. Ive been saying, though, ive always thought that she would be a dark horse, she would be the one there would always be a lane for her because of her because shes a centrist, because shes moderate, because she builds coalitions. Ive always thought there could be a lane for Amy Klobuchar beyond the personality. Everyone thinks because of trump youve got to have a big personality. Obama was sort of the star president , youve got to have a big personality. She is just steady and shes on message, this is what i think, and she can build a coalition. Yeah. And to marks point, i mean, shes been running like she has nothing to lose. I mean, when she got into the race there were a fair number of people saying really, is she running . People doubted how long she would go. And here she is. Who would have thought it . And hiring more staff to move on. Exactly. If you look at whats probably happening inside the Klobuchar Team tonight, its the opposite of whats happening inside the warren camp. The Klobuchar Team is probably trying to figure out what to do with all this money and how to hire enough staff to get them on the ground in South Carolina and nevada, is it too later, how do you get the operation up and going, how do you get ads up on the air. The warren team we see what shes presenting publicly, but internally theyre probably getting calls from donors saying whats your path forward . How are you going to hang in there . Thats my question. How does she keep that momentum . Well, warrens team put out a memo today setting expectations in New Hampshire as many people expected her to do, but also the difference with warren between her and klobuchar is warren has had people on the ground in super tuesday states and in other states for a very long time and it looks as though she is not cutting there. Where shes cutting is shes moving around ads. She did cut in South Carolina. Shes moving some of that money over to nevada. With klobuchar what i noticed about her especially in the final days heading up to iowa when i was there was the way that she benefitted from cory bookers absence. The number of voters that had been cory booker that moved over to her was surprising to me. Just by talking to people at her events. Benefiting from that, benefiting from booker. Her consistent performance in debates appears to have clearly helped her. The fact she was able to stay on the debate stage i think helped with the money aspect, which was an issue that booker raised as to why he wasnt able to stay in the race. Could be one of the few candidates on the debate stage who could throw punches and not like be punished for it. Everyone else who threw punches on that stage, thinking back to the very beginning to this point, were penalized. Having worked in chicago and st. Louis, they call that midwestern nice. I mean, she did it in a strong way but she didnt take a cheap shot. Not at all. When she needed to get after pete the other day about experience and him seeming to belittle her work as a senator, you know, she came back with him very directly and very forcefully. Also in a speech that i thought was really good she said im Amy Klobuchar and i can beat donald trump and then talked about resilience. So i agree with you. I think she and Elizabeth Warren i think in Different Things, her team is thinking about how do i expand quick enough to take advantage of this ticket that i bought myself out in New Hampshire. But that was a really good hit when she said we have a novice in the white house now and look where that got us. But this is going to change, as we know. Theres a few more debates. Theres a few more debates, but also does she poll among internet votersed below shes below buttigieg. Shes zero percent i would expect her to have some problems but i think we should take some moments to reflect on the fact that being a Strong Female candidate is no longer a novelty. She i think may be the first one in the democratic field to not rely on her gender for votes in the way that she makes an oblique ask for, it saying im a woman and we need to make history, Something Like that. She doesnt make that a defining characteristic of her candidacy but at the same time shes not afraid to point out double standards like she did against Pete Buttigieg and saying now lirngs i listen, im a u. S. Senator, i deserve the respect hes getting. I think shes just done that in a really laudable way that will be a model for other people to follow. Also i think inoffensive. Unoffensive to most people. I think a lot of times the burden that women candidates have to carry is how it is that you show up on one of these stages or in the course of campaigning and frankly not offend other women who may not have acceded to the same level you have. And she has a way of basically reflecting im every woman. Glt only time she points it out and youre right, i did the first town hall with her, i read her book, i felt like i know her. I read her book on tapes, i hear her voice in my head. Every time i do a town hall with someone i read the book because everyones written a book. I read Kamala Harriss book. I read cory bookers book. Mayor pete. Youve got like your own book club over here. Don lemon book club. So i feel like i know them i read good night moon. Her book is really good when she talks about her father being an alcoholic, talks about the work her fatherd talks about her relationship with her mother, her relationship with her daughter. Its how they grew up, not having enough money and on and on and on. She has a very good story. But the only time she really talks about being a woman is when she has to remind everyone on that stage that she was won every contest that she has been in. Electability. She and Elizabeth Warren. You remember the exchange she had with Brett Kavanaugh over her fathers alcoholism . Dont you like a drink or something she handled that about as well as a human being could, forcefully but in a polite way. And i think people appreciate that temperament. And i think shes very smart strategically to amandas point because women dont vote for women candidates in the majority. Thats not how its worked. Im glad you said that. Even in the New Hampshire primary results it was split between klobuchar and buttigieg and sanders. So leading with that is not necessarily whats appealing to voters, including women. Its smart that shes not shes leading with her record of accomplishment. I will say that the sweet spot in any campaign is when youre on the rise and no ones really tracking you. And people are now tracking her. And she has an entire record as a prosecutor and her cases and everything will be gone through. In addition to building up their operation theyd better be ready because its coming at them. And i hope they should be ready for it. Check me on this because i think actually mr. Mayor you may have identified the moment but we sit on these panels and we watch these debates, we watch these town halls and we watch them on the campaign trail, we look for that moment, oh, my gosh, that was the moment where it turned. We all look at pete with the town hall. We talked about that. But amy cloklobuchar hasnt put herself in the position to have that moment, whether its good or bad. And its almost its worked to her advantage because shes very steady and she stands by what she believes in. We talk about Bernie Sanders. People like him for what he stands by. Amy klobuchar wasnt winning any people over when she said no, i dont think were going to give college for free. I mean, its a very easy thing to say. But she stood her ground. I dont think it matters to her anymore as long as you check her name on the box. But i remember it being drilled into me, i think ive done three town halls with her. Klobuchar. Shar, not char. But i dont think she really cares anymore. I hate to be a downer. The only thing theyre playing the music. No worries. Weve got theyre playing you many races ahead. And this is going to be challenging obviously to keep pace. All right. So how does the democratic race, speak of the race, how does it change now that the first two contests are over . Can Bernie Sanders hold on to his frontrunner status . And how does a former Vice President , joe biden, recover from the underwhelming finishes that hes had . Thats next. One more bite kraft.
