Many of the polls closed at 7 p.m. ET, and networks began digesting the results with a bit of caution given that only a slice of the vote was counted. Commentators still pointed to Klobuchar and the fact that her campaign was regarded as an also ran until only very recently, with an apparent surge since the presidential debate on Friday.
After the chaos of the Iowa caucuses, anchors, pundits and other media figures were looking to New Hampshire to provide a speedy vote count and clear-cut results. Whoever is the victor will still face formidable contests this month in Nevada and South Carolina, as well as the presence of Michael Bloomberg. He has poured hundreds of millions in the race and is skipping the early primary states to focus on Super Tuesday.
One candidate left the state earlier on Tuesday: Joe Biden. He and campaign staffers had signaled that they did not expect to do well in New Hampshire, and argue that a better measurement of his prospects will come in a more diverse state. He and his wife Jill Biden flew to South Carolina, where they will address his New Hampshire supporters by livestream.
Also trailing in early returns was Elizabeth Warren, who is from the neighboring state of Massachusetts. She began to fall from the top of the polls as Sanders consolidated support on the left, starting with a key endorsement last fall from Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, the New York congresswoman. At the Buttigieg primary night event in Nashua, NH, the campaign had set up a stage and walkway in a community college gymnasium, with the scoreboard time set for 20:20 and the result set at 46-46
