Handing out doughnuts because apparently you have to do everything and you will do almost anything to win votes. Mr. Mayor it feels fantastic. Volunteers are fired up. It is wonderful. How are you feeling this morning . Feeling good. We met a lot of people that just voted for me. Do you think youre going to win . Just exciting to be out here and it is great to see how many people show up to show their support and how many people show up to vote. So im really excited about this. Im just excited to be alive. Thats the only answer to have today. Cnn reporters fanned out throughout the states. Athena jones in manchester. What are you hearing, what are you seeing there . Reporter hi, kate, were at a polling station at an Elementary School in manchester, the 12th of 12 wards. And the flow of voters has been pretty steady. I can tell you the moderators told us earlier this morning they were expecting to see more people. Now work at 885 people out of the 5300 or so that are registered to vote at this location. I understand thats about normal. Im talking to vernia perry, she worked here at this very school polling location for almost 20 years. So she has a good sense of how this compares to past elections. Tell me how this compares, the numbers youre seeing . I think it is comparable. I think now were getting the steady flow of people coming in. They may have waited because the roads were a little slippery or something this morning. So i think were starting to see a steady flow in here now. And i think it is going to probably keep up like this and hopefully 3 00 we get our 3 00 to 7 00 rush like we always do. It is very unpredictable. You take it one little by little. Right. You were saying to me earlier that there was a prediction that there would be perhaps up to 500 new voters registering per ward. Have you gotten any sense of whether thats the case here . I think were doing pretty well over here. I see we have a separate desk for new voters to get their ballots. So hes pretty busy. So i would assume yeah. Got it. Well, thanks so much. Thats vernia perry. At this particular location, ive talked to 75 voters and as of right now, sanders and buttigieg remain in the lead with warren, biden, klobuchar grouped together not too far behind. The 3 00 to 7 00 rush. I love that, they know that well in New Hampshire. Thank you, athena. Cnns Miguel Marquez is at another polling location, in dover, New Hampshire. What are you hearing from voters there . Reporter i think were looking for another 3 00 to 7 00 rush here in dover. It has been steady but not exactly gangbusters in dover. There are about at 6600 voters t this point, democrats and republicans, both voting today. Most of the people i speak to say theyre voting for Bernie Sanders, the second is Pete Buttigieg. And then warren and klobuchar sort of fill out the rest. I have not heard anyone so far say that they are votinging f fe biden. I spoke to a couple earlier asking why they made the choices they did. I think Pete Buttigieg is really a middle line candidate and i think that he is the most fair and the least radical. Bernie sanders ends up with the nomination, could you support him just as heartily . I would. I dont mind him either. But he is a little more extreme for my taste. So but i would still vote for him if he got the job. Reporter now, we are watching we are watching dover very closely because in the last several last four contested democrat iic primarie dover has been a bellwether for state, not only picked the first one or two candidates, it has picked the four and five candidates in exact order that the state voted. It is a very good test for Democratic Candidates here. They are expecting a pretty sizable turnout today. Well see if that comes to fruition, something certainly democratic officials here and across the country will be watching as well. Back to you. All right, fantastic, thank you, miguel. So thats what were hearing from some of the voters this morning. What are the campaigns saying in their final pitch today . Lets find out. First, lets talk about joe biden, his campaign is helping for a better result in the disappointing fourth place finish in iowa. He also seems to be trying to lower expectations in New Hampshire. Already looking past New Hampshire quite frankly. Listen to this. Im anxious to get to South Carolina and nevada. I view this as, you know, a package of four out of the gate. And i dont know how you can judge who is going to be likely be able to win the nomination until you have the africanamerican vote and the latino vote and that doesnt come until later. Cnns jessica dean is following biden in nashua. He calls himself an underdog. What are you hearing from the campaign. Reporter im getting breaking news i want to announce to you. Were getting word from the campaign that jill and joe biden are planning to travel to South Carolina tonight. That they will leave New Hampshire. Im still looking at the information as im delivering it to you. It looks like their Event Start Time is for 9 00 p. M. Eastern in South Carolina. Thats going to be a South Carolina launch party with one of their top surrogates, cedric richmond, of course, the congressional black caucus. So, again, reporting new information right now, joe and jill biden headed to South Carolina tonight on the night of the New Hampshire primaries. Now, to put that into context for you, the disappointing fourth place finish in iowa, then coming to New Hampshire, where hes expected to also fall behind Pete Buttigieg, Bernie Sanders, maybe even coming in fourth or lower, so they were certainly lowering expectations, here in New Hampshire, and now were getting word that jill and joe biden will travel out of the state tonight and head to South Carolina which has long been considered to be bidens firewall, with his swell of africanamerican support there, the campaign really ready to get to that portion of the primary. Lets take a listen to what he told don lemon last night. Take a listen. Bernies a good guy. You want to run, you say you know louisiana, you know georgia, you want to run with the top of the ticket, defining the Democratic Party as a socialist . Bernie is a great guy. It is his selfdefinition. Reporter all right, so, again, also, kate, thats what we have been hearing from the Biden Campaign as well and from joe biden, he can benefit the bottom of the ticket and bring along the senate, the house majorities they want with the democrat in office in 2020. But, again, the breaking news that the bidens will travel to South Carolina this evening during after the polls close here in New Hampshire. Kate . And honestly, maybe more important than what the campaign is saying, their travel plans might be more telling exactly what theyre thinking the result could be this evening and where their focus squarely is, even as voters in New Hampshire are heading to the polls. Great stuff, thanks, jessica, i really appreciate it. The one candidate looking for another big boost tonight, Amy Klobuchar, her Campaign Says theyre seeing big crowds, big interest and big enthusiasm for the midwestern senator following a big debate performance on friday. It has high the campaign has High Expectations for today. Cnns kyung lah is following the klobuchar campaign, shes in manchester. Kate, people are lining up here at this School Gymnasium in h manchester, New Hampshire, to vote in the New Hampshire primary. There is a good number of people lining up, they have to go to the proper place to pick up their ballot by last name. And then they pick up their ballot, and they head over to the voting booth, it is a little difficult to see because it is so busy here. But then they vote. The New Hampshire primary well under way for several hours here in this School Gymnasium and cross the state. The candidates really wanted to make an impression on these voters before they came in. Amy klobuchar was one of those candidates. She pulled up in her bus with her campaign, and she greeted reporters, she greeted supporters as well as people who were coming in here to vote at this polling place, she was asked what would victory look like for her. Heres what she said. It just means that we have as usual what im going to see is that we have based on where we were a week ago that we have defied expectations. Thats what we have done every step of the way in this campaign. Pete buttigieg also was at this polling place. He arrived here before dawn at 6 00 a. M. Just before the polling place was opening, greeted by a good number of his volunteers. Then he hit a couple of other polling places, carrying doughnuts, asked along the way how he feels about today, he said hes feeling great. Kate . Great to see you kyung, thank you. Pete buttigieg is looking to sustain the momentum from his big finish in iowa. It is clear part of his Closing Argument now is going out for the candidate who won New Hampshire in the last democratic president ial primary. Bernie sanders. Senator sanders, ideals are ideals that i think most americans share. At the end of the day, we have to explain how we get from here to there. And when there is a hole in his proposals that amounts to 25 trillion, bigger than the entire size of the american economy, i think the American People deserve answers on how were going to make sure that the math adds up. Joining me now, National Political reporter for politico elena snyder following the Buttigieg Campaign and cnn political commentator and spokesperson for Hillary Clintons 2016 president ial campaign karen finney. What are you hearing from the Buttigieg Campaign today . What is a win . The Buttigieg Campaign wants to extend what they were able to do in iowa, a surprise surge, basically a tie out of iowa and winning the state delegates and they want to try and repeat that here in New Hampshire, but also very aware that theyre competing against two senators who have home state advantage. Obviously chief among them is Bernie Sanders from neighboring vermont, who has been leading in these polls and who is likely to they see as somebody theyre going after in terms of trying to get that first place finish, but also elizabeth warren, someone who they share a lot of overlapping voters with and from neighboring massachusetts. Theyre aware they had stiffer competition than maybe in different ways than they did in iowa. But certainly still feel like they need to put in a really strong competitive showing against Bernie Sanders if they hope to have momentum moving into more diverse states into the calendar. That seems clear and in the tone and the focus of the final pitch. Karen, what do you think of some of the campaigns going negative post iowa or drawing contrasts if you will . Thats right. We like to call the contrasts. I think it is damaging and i think we saw that in some of the earlier reporting. There is a way to draw a contrast to say heres where i am on this issue and heres where the other person is, but i will say, you know, joe bidens ad on Pete Buttigieg hit people hard and didnt quite land the way they intended. He made some important points about the differentials in their experience, but i think most democrats dont want to see it get quite that negative, but that being said, i always want to caution democrats to remember whatever we face against each other in a primary is nothing like what we will face in a general election against donald trump. So this is the time to be tested, to see can a candidate land a punch, can they take a punch, and can their campaign handle it and bounce back and as we saw, mayor buttigieg, you know, handled himself quite well and was ready for that attack. Karen, real quick, what jessica dean was reporting the new travel plans basically announced, joe biden and jill biden on the ground in South Carolina this evening as the reporting is likely going to be coming out from the New Hampshire primary. Leaning on your past campaign experience, what does that tell you . Well, two things, one, i can tell you we couldnt wait to get out of New Hampshire in 2016. We were, like, in the van, ready, waiting to go and hillary was still speaking. It makes a lot of sense and heres why. Two dynamics here. Number one, South Carolina is very important for joe biden. We talked for a long time about his support among africanamerican voters, so critical to winning the nomination. But the second thing is, part of what were seeing in this election cycle, this is a conversation democrats have been having, really since 2004, 2005, when i was at the dnc, it is not just about the first two states, youve really got to take the first four early states as a composite because it gives you information about how the candidate can do with different communities of voters, different issues, different regions of the country. It is like dating. Voters are learning more information about the candidates as we go. Depending what dating app, though. Very true. We wont go there. This is your linkedin in version or your tinder version. One person not going the negative route, i will say, is elizabeth warren. So in this moment, how important is New Hampshire . How important is this state for her and her path to success, if you will . Well, it depends on whether you ask them what they say publicly versus what theyre saying privately. Publicly they acknowledge that they need to do well here, but there is a lot of projection forward into the super tuesday states. Elizabeth warren is one of the most prepared candidates heading into super tuesday. More than a thousand staff deployed on the ground across this country. She is somebody who put a huge bet on organization and that they feel like thats something they can lean on as they move forward, past New Hampshire. Look, like i said, she is from a neighboring state, this is a place where she should have had some home field advantage, but shes clearly lost out some of that to Bernie Sanders. Also, shes got a lot of overlapping support with Pete Buttigieg. So i think that shes it is important for her to do well here, but i think theyre trying to already in the same way joe biden is look ahead to what is next, look ahead to the places where they can put points on the board and where they might feel like they have an advantage over some of those other candidates who maybe are not as well organized in those super tuesday states. I love the knowing laugh from karen on between the public and private message coming from a campaign. It is good it see you guys, thank you so much. Appreciate it. Coming up, Bernie Sanders under attack from the fellow democrats. Still predicting victory today. His campaign cochair joins us next. We made usaa insurance for members like martin.
