Summary
It's that the chaotic count and the muddled result could presage a messy, protracted primary slog that could go all the way to the Milwaukee convention in July and imperil party unity heading into the fall.With results from 71 percent of precincts reported by the state party as of 1:15 a.m. ET Wednesday, it's possible — even likely — that Pete Buttigieg will have won a narrow plurality of state delegate equivalents and that Bernie Sanders will have won a plurality of caucusgoers' first preferences.This site is protected by recaptcha Privacy Policy | Terms of ServiceIf the split decision holds, Buttigieg would almost certainly owe his delegate lead to a second-choice surge from supporters of Joe Biden and Amy Klobuchar, whose groups didn't reach the 15 percent viability threshold in their precincts.At first glance, the biggest loser would seem to be Joe Biden, currently in fourth place behind Buttigieg, Sanders and Elizabeth Warren on all counts.
