Buttigieg Holds Iowa Lead With 86% Now Reporting

CBS News reports:



On Wednesday, Pete Buttigieg held onto his delegate lead in the Iowa caucuses with 86% of precincts reporting. As of 5:30 p.m., Buttigieg had 26.6% of delegates and Sanders was close behind, with 25.4%. Next, in third place, Warren had 18.3%, Biden had 15.9% and Klobuchar had 12%.

The state party is releasing results on a rolling basis after the Iowa Democratic Party said that an app it was using to report precinct results had a coding error. The party stressed that the flaw didn’t impact the accuracy of the data that had been collected and said that there has been no sign of hacking.
