But Mr. Kasich has a long way to go before he could challenge Mr. Trump as former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, the best-funded candidate, has no plans to quit the race.

Trump, who trounced the GOP presidential field in New Hampshire earning 35% of the vote, told NBC he would tone it down if he got closer to the nomination. Sanders beat her by 21 percentage points and forced Clinton into retooling her message, with aides saying she will do more to acknowledge voter anger with the status quo while embracing black voters, anti-gun groups and mothers. Trump did carry conservatives, but he also carried moderates, women, young people, independents – every type of Republican voter. After losing badly to Donald Trump, John Kasich, and Ted Cruz, they were on Twitter attacking the New Hampshire ground game of…
Her campaign tweeted mid-morning: “You’re the reason we’re going to win this nomination and then win this election together”. “Maybe greater than ever before”. Tuesday’s vote did little to clarify who that might be.
The billionaire political novice on Tuesday posted a decisive victory in the New Hampshire primary, a once-unthinkable first for an enterprise built on the promise of putting America on top and turning politics on its head.
Now the campaigns turn to the next primary votes in Nevada on February 23 and in SC on February 27. His poor debate performance was due to his repetition of a single talking point – repeated three times while New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie chastised him for repeating talking points.
On the Republican side, Trump’s visceral assault on USA politics galvanized voters who brought him his debut victory in the fledgling race, keeping him in pole position despite his second-place showing in last week’s Iowa caucuses.
For some Republican leaders, back-to-back victories by Trump and Cruz, an uncompromising conservative, add urgency to the need to coalesce around a more mainstream candidate.
That comes out to $60 per vote for Sanders, $52 for Clinton.
Only one in eight voters – in both parties – said they were voting for a candidate who could win in November.
But make no mistake: This salutary result from a survey researcher’s perspective was mostly a matter of good luck.
“People have every right to be angry”, Clinton said. “We will change this corrupt system of campaign finance”, said Mr. Sanders. The campaign is focusing now on contests in Nevada and SC and states that better reflect the diversity of the party, “and we feel very good about our prospects for success”, Mr. Mook said.
Trump, speaking on Fox News, praised Christie but joked: “I want everybody to get out except for me”.
At stake Tuesday were less than 1 percent of the delegates who, at party national conventions in July, will choose nominees to succeed Obama. Sanders was the overwhelming favorite of voters who were looking for a candidate they saw as honest and trustworthy (91 percent) and cares about people like them (82 percent).

In what may be the most unexpected use of that tongue twister “eminent domain”, the Trump figure tells another female doll in front of a large doll house that he’s going to take it so he could “park my limos there”. But it won’t be much of a lead. He said during his primary night event in Nashua that he will go home to New Jersey to watch the final results and make a decision about his campaign instead of continuing on to SC. Trump will win at least nine.
