After better-than-expected Iowa showing, Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg likely to attract the spotlight and incoming fire from rivals at New Hampshire debate by jamesoliphant
MANCHESTER, N.H. - After his better-than-expected showing in the Iowa caucuses, Pete Buttigieg is likely to attract the spotlight - and incoming fire from rivals - as Democratic presidential contenders debate on Friday in New Hampshire, just days before the state’s pivotal primary.
U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, former Vice President Joe Biden and U.S Senator Amy Klobuchar trailed behind in the nation’s first nominating contest. Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez added to uncertainty surrounding the nominating process on Thursday by calling for an audit of the Iowa caucuses after an array of problems delayed the final count.
Biden comes into the debate in a more desperate position than his campaign anticipated, having finished far behind both Buttigieg and Sanders in Iowa, a result he called “a gut punch.” He still leads in opinion polls nationally, but his margin has been steadily shrinking. Now that Sanders has shown himself to be a viable threat for the nomination, he is almost certain to be challenged by Biden and others on the stage about whether his leftist agenda would draw enough voters in November to beat Trump.
