Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders Win New Hampshire Primary

But a sizeable field remained.

Trump voters at this rally told The Jerusalem Post what they have been telling local and national media outlets for months: They are exhausted of the established American political class – represented by the Clinton and Bush families – and they seek a true disruption to Washington’s status quo. Many were speculating that either Texas Senator Ted Cruz, fresh off a win in the Iowa caucus or Florida Senator Marco Rubio, who had a surprisingly good performance the week before, would be the state’s second place victor.

In the final debate before the New Hampshire primary, Christie eviscerated Sen.

If Trump had Republicans on edge, Democrats were feeling no less queasy. Democrat Hillary Clinton, the former U.S. secretary of state and former USA senator, now looks wounded, trailing Sanders by 60 to 39 percent based on 86 percent of the returns. “She said, ‘No matter what happens to you, your friend, your Jewish friend, will stick by your side and fight right with you and stand by you'”.

Sharpton hugged Sanders prior to them heading to a breakfast of soul food. While Clinton remains the favorite in the national race, the win by the Vermont senator could be a springboard into a competitive, drawn-out campaign.

Mr Sanders rolls into the next two contests with all the momentum, but it is Mrs Clinton who has the institutional and demographic advantages. Ted Cruz speaks as he campaigns at Tuckaway Tavern and Butchery on February 8, 2016 in Raymond, New Hampshire.

He drew contrasts with Mr Trump as he told a crowd of 500 in Myrtle Beach that Texans and South Carolinians were more alike than not. We don’t win with the military.

The next Republican contest is the February 20 SC primary. That much is clear in our very evangelical state.

Over the course of the campaign Trump has used foul language on more than one occasion: In November, he said he would “knock the [expletive] out of ISIS”, the organization also known as Islamic State group. Yet his path grew far trickier after a fifth-place New Hampshire letdown, which terminated talk of Republican leaders quickly uniting behind him as the strongest alternative to “outsiders” Trump and Cruz.

For Republican Party establishment unnerved by Donald Trump’s thumping victory on Tuesday night, the question of which candidate from the establishment camp will be the next to drop out becomes increasingly relevant. GOP officials have already had early discussions about such a July scenario, which could be triggered if no candidate secures a majority of delegates by convention time.

Hors d’oeuvres were passed around and the beer flowed as the real-estate mogul trounced his rivals, winning 35 percent of the vote – a 20-point margin from his nearest rival, the gentler John Kasich, governor of OH, in the biggest statistical victory the state has handed to a Republican in 16 years. “That’s how far and funded we’re prepared to go”.

“You guys got room for one more?” “And if the country doesn’t solve its problems, it gets flabby”.

But Mr Trump also tapped into a deep well of anxiety among Republicans and independents in New Hampshire, according to exit polling data, and he ran strongest among voters who were anxious about illegal immigrants, incipient economic turmoil and the threat of a terrorist attack in the United States.
