New Hampshire results

From NPR:



Until we fix our electoral system, they need to stop claiming a win on popular vote.  Buttigieg gets one more delegate out of this than Bernie, so WTF?  It's the delegates that matter.  And this is, as has been for all of modern American electoral history, a major flaw in the system that we keep pretending doesn't contradict our claim to a democratic government.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

And, hello Amy.  At least white people like her a lot.

UPDATE:  Apologies for the freakout.  Those delegate numbers are totals, including Iowa.  Pete and Bernie apparently both got 9 delegates from New Hampshire. 

The complaint about popular vote vs. winner still stands.
