Nearly a week after the Iowa caucuses, the state’s Democratic Party announced that Pete Buttigieg won the most delegates in the first nominating contest, finishing narrowly ahead of Bernie Sanders.
The Iowa Democratic Party said Sunday that in the Feb. 3 caucuses, Buttigieg, a former South Bend, Indiana, mayor, finished with 26.2% of state delegate equivalents, the traditional way of measuring victory in the event. Sanders, a socialist Vermont senator, was just behind with 26.1%. Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren came in third with 18%, and former Vice President Joe Biden was fourth at 15.8%.
