Hillary Clinton wins Iowa caucuses

February 2, 2016


Hillary Clinton wins Iowa Caucuses


                   Hillary Clinton, who is running for the US Presidency, has been declared the "razor thin winner" of the Iowa caucuses. They declared her winner today at 1PM. However, this means that  Clinton failed to prove herself as the Democrats' true runner. She might need to wait until late February for a real chance of being "a big dog". Bernie Sanders still holds a pretty strong lead in New Hampshire. That's next state to vote on February 9. For Clinton supporters, her slim win might have dampen her support, and boost Sanders support. CNN quotes Hilary in their article. "'"I am so thrilled to be coming to New Hampshire after winning Iowa! I have won and I have lost there, it is a lot better to win,' she told the crowd." They also quoted Sanders campaign manager. "'We went toe-to-toe with the establishment,' Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver told Blitzer on Tuesday. 'We're extremely gratified.'" CNN also reports that "Sanders aides have said they won't agree to a debate in New Hampshire, unless Clinton agrees to a debate in New York."


                My original opinion on this article was somewhat biased, based on other people's opinion. I, personally, haven't been really paying attention to the campaign. I only know what I hear from other people at school. However, after doing my research, I found my true, genuine opinion. I congratulate Hillary Clinton on her win of the Iowa Caucuses. I believe that this is one step towards her campaign, despite what people otherwise has said about her win. However, I believe that Bernie Sanders will win the New Hampshire vote. According to CNN's article, Sanders has more supporters, and will most likely win. Even though I don't have a side on who should win, I agree with the CNN article. Clinton's supporters are a little disappointed that she won by a little slim. Sanders supporters in New Hampshire will step up to the plate to make sure that he wins the voting.
