Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders win in New Hampshire
Senator Bernie Sanders, an independent from Vermont and 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, speaks during a primary watch party at Concord High School in Concord, New Hampshire. Look for the former secretary of state – or at least her surrogates – to go on the attack against Sanders’ embrace of socialism and single-payer health care in the South. Trump carried a majority of those who said they wanted an outsider to win.

Cruz had claimed a strong victory in Iowa, but his rivals set out to slow his momentum in the second nomination contest.
While Donald Trump may have won the New Hampshire primary by a decisive margin on Tuesday night, the results for Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio may prove more telling about the future of their campaigns than for the billionaire businessman.
Cruz had the support of many voters who are very conservative and among evangelical Christians, while Rubio did best among voters for whom experience and electability is important. She defended her progressive stances and vowed to be the candidate who fixes problems and not just state them. Marco Rubio battled it out for third place in New Hampshire, with Rubio possibly looking at a disappointing fifth place finish.
“This is my 72nd day in the state”, Christie, the New Jersey governor, said during a campaign stop Tuesday. Christie needed a top 5 finish in New Hampshire, but it is doubtful that he will break 10% in the state, and the Bridgegate gov is already rumbling about “reassessing” his campaign after New Hampshire.
Almost half of voters in the Republican primary made up their mind in the past week, according to early exit polls conducted by Edison Research for the Associated Press and the television networks. The next four Republicans were expected to bunch up, and that’s what they did.
Democratic presidential candidate, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, admits she has work to do after losing decisively to her Democratic rival Sen. He appeals to liberal Democrats who believe Obama hasn’t done enough to address the nation’s disparity in wealth.
“What the people here have said is that given the enormous crises facing our country, it is just too late for the same old, same old establishment politics and establishment economics”, Mr Sanders said in speech to his supporters late on Tuesday.
Mrs Clinton and Mr Sanders will get little rest after New Hampshire.
“People have every right to be angry”. We’re going to come and win. It also reflects the fact that New Hampshire is more hospitable to Sanders than coming contests in other states – including SC – will be.
“A Democrat who is unable to inspire strong levels of support in minority communities will have no credible path to winning the presidency in the general election”, Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook said in a memo released as the polls closed.
With 50% of the votes counted, Senator Sanders has a double-digit percentage lead over Clinton.
On the GOP side, the SC primary has traditonally predicted the eventual Republican nominee from 1980-2008, priding itself on choosing a victor. But it won’t be much of a lead.

About 550,000 voters turned out for the New Hampshire primary, a reported record for the state which has a population of 1.3 million.
