thinnest of margins, .2% to be precise. but this win is not without controversy. for example undecided delegates in some precincts were awarded by the toss of a coin when there was a tie. this happened at precincts in ames, des moines and a few other cities. a coin toss is allowed under democratic rules. it all came down to one precinct , number 42 which delayed hillary clinton from being named the winner until noon tuesday. the sander's campaign right now is asking the iowa democratic party to re-verify the numbers from each precinct. at the same time some voters are complaining about disorganization at their caucus sites. kcci's chief political reporter cynthia fodor has more on that. cynthia: they weren't swinging clubs at waveland golf course they were casting votes. >> there were people lined up outside for an hour. cynthia: doug fletcher says 327 people showed up in a room meant for 92. >> very chaotic. very disorganized. >> i don't think our precinct captain understood the process. i don't know what training he had. >> we didn't have results from precinct chair. that is what we like to do. we like to their of five results. we erred on the side of caution. cynthia: the party chair says the precinct chair dropped off the paperwork this morning. considering the virtual tie she made sure every last vote was counted before calling it. >> that's what it was make sure we erred on side of accuracy , make sure it was 100% before released results. cynthia: now sanders campaign wants to see those numbers from every precinct. >> make sure all numbers are right. look at paper to make sure it matches what was sent in. cynthia: can you give him numbers on paper from each precinct? >> i don't know, but the final results are the final results. today the clinton camp says statistically there is no outstanding information that could change the results and no way senator sanders can overcome secretary clinton's advantage. eric: the iowa democratic party reminds voters the precincts are run by volunteers who were doing the best they could, demonstrating democracy in action. new kcci entrance polling to show you about what issues democratic caucus-goers thought were the most important and how clinton and sanders scored. the economy and health care took the top spots. and hillary clinton won on both those issues. a pretty wide margin in health care, 59 238. 51 to 42 on the economy. -- 59 to 38. 51 to 42 on the economy. clinton also took a commanding 65 to 28% lead over sanders when it comes to terrorism. sanders pulled way ahead on income equality. 61 the clintons 34. elizabeth: on the republican side ted cruz won the iowa republican caucus with 28% of the vote. donald trump who held the top spot in most polls leading up to the caucuses. last night's republican field was dominated in large part by 2 minority candidates. and that presents an interesting dynamic for iowa's hispanic voters. kcci's ryan smith has new reaction from the state's leading latino advocacy group. ryan s.: one of the most surprising storylines from caucus 2016, not a ted cruz victory. nor a trump defeat. >> here tonight in iowa the people of this great state sent a very clear message. ryan s.: but a competitive third place finish. marco-mentum on monday. >> to a great extent caucus night was a vindication of the rubio strategy of trying to become the main alternative to donald trump and ted cruz. ryan s.: when you break down voter turnout 51% of gop caucus-goers voted for a latino. >> very interesting because on the republican side the hate rhetoric has been against latinos. but yet we had latino's so it is bittersweet. ryan s.: the league of united latin american citizens rallied more than 13,000 latinos to caucus sites last night, exceeding a prediction of 10,000. regional vp joe henry says cruz and rubio's stance on immigration, building a wall, cutting off pathways to citizenship hurt the candidate's popularity within the hispanic community. >> with the amount of our people who came out and caucused last night hopefully the conservatives will start addressing those issues especially those two latino candidates. elizabeth: iowa's hispanic population hovers around 6%. cruz's win made him the first latino to win the iowa caucuses. our kcci entrance polling information showed immigration at the bottom of the list of issues most important to republican caucus-goers. while government spending was at the top. marks when it comes to immigration. in terms of the economy rubio took the top spot by six points. cruz was tops by 7-points when it comes to fighting terrorism. crews also led by six points -- cruz also led by 6-points in terms of government spending while rubio was 2nd and trump 3rd. eric: we are waking up to snow on the ground. metinka: heavy snow overnight. the band started about 10:00 p.m. still a few flurries lingering. the wind continues to be a problem causing drinking snow and poor visibility with winds gusting over 30 miles per hour producing wind chills from five to 15 degrees. grab the warm coat. temperatures today will actually be falling. eric: donald trump is back on the campaign trail. he's in new hampshire where he's confident he will place first. skipping last week's fox news debate here in des moines. >> if i had to do it again i would do the exact same thing and you know why? because i raised $6 million for the vets in one hour. so if i took a 2nd place over 1st place and could give the vets $6 million i would do that all day long. eric: trump is not the only one in new hampshire right now. all of the candidates are now setting their sights on the nation's first primary state. elizabeth: kcci's sally kidd explains why some of the jump-start their campaigns in the granite state. sally: most of the candidates flew straight from iowa to new hampshire overnight kicking off seven days of intense campaigning. >> coming to new hampshire after winning iowa. sally: after a razor thin win in the closest democratic caucus in iowa history hillary clinton takes her pitch to granite state voters. who can go toe to toe against the republicans to make sure >> bernie. bernie. sally: but new hampshire polls sizeable lead over clinton. >> it sounds to me like you're ready for a political revolution. [cheers] sally: after cruising to the republican win in iowa ted cruz sought to differentiate himself from donald trump who finished 4 points behind. but he'll have to close the gap with trump who has about a 20 point lead in granite state polls. >> i think the voters of new hampshire frankly deserve more than politicians trading insults and behaving like school children. sally: marco rubio is hoping his strong 3rd place iowa finish will fuel his momentum ahead of the primary. >> i can take our message to people who have not voted for us before and bring them on into the conservative movement. >> it's time for him to step up and man up and stop letting all and handle him. sally: chris christie, john kasich and jeb bush have invested more time in new hampshire and are looking to make a comeback there. elizabeth: that was sally kidd reporting. candidates on both sides will share a stage one more time before new hampshire. tonight cnn hosts a town hall with the democratic

improving. we can get started on our snow melt. eric: new information now in the suspicious death of des moines architect kirk blunck. elizabeth: more than week ago blunck was found dead inside the teachout building in the east village of des moines. now police say they have interviewed two potential witnesses caught on surveillance tape inside the building the day blunck died. kcci's todd magel has the new details. >> we're just trying to piece it all together. todd: des moines police have a mystery on their hands. kirk blunck die? a witness found him at the bottom of a stairway sunday january 24. minutes before he'd been drinking next door with a friend at the locust cap, -- locust tap, a building he owns. >> heart broken hurt. todd: that friend? nick stapek who has worked for blunck for 15 years. >> we spent the last couple hours chit chatting in the corner and just before he left he said he had to go across the street for a few minutes and that he was going home to watch the game. todd: 15 minutes later stapeck saw police cars and ambulances at the teachout building. >> in my heart i didn't know my friend had gotten hurt across the street. todd: soon after rumors of foul play began circulating. did he simply fall? or did someone attack blunck and push him down the stairs. maybe a disgruntled tenant? >> we try not to get involved in the rumors. what we want are the facts so we are investigating this as any other death that has such curious circumstances. todd: police released pictures of two people in the building about the time of blunck's death. they've since talked to detectives and are scheduled for more questioning. but police are not calling them suspects. information that's actually leading us to some other questions. so we are still working on this. elizabeth: police say they are now waiting for autopsy results to shed more light on blunck's death. eric: kirk blunck was a long-time des moines architect. he was one of the first to restore several buildings on the east-side of downtown des moines which eventually led to the birth of the east village. he also had conflicts with tenants and the city over poor upkeep at several of his
