Sen. Amy Klobuchar raked in millions following a last-minute surge in the New Hampshire primary that led to her outperforming both Sen. Elizabeth Warren and former Vice President Joe Biden.
“Just as @amyklobuchar said, Team Amy redefined grit, and tonight’s results proved that our grassroots support continues to surge!” Justin Buoen, Klobuchar’s campaign manager, tweeted Tuesday night. “Thanks to the team’s strong showing, we raised more than $2.5 million since the polls closed. Bring on Nevada, South Carolina and beyond!”

The Minnesota Democrat came in third place in New Hampshire, bringing in 20% of the vote behind the 24% Pete Buttigieg received and the 26% Sen. Bernie Sanders gained. Klobuchar received more votes in the state’s primary than both Biden and Warren combined.
The candidates now move on to Nevada, where there has not been a reliable poll on the field in over a month. Sanders will likely be the favorite in the state, with Buttigieg and Klobuchar hard on his heels. Biden ditched New Hampshire at the last moment before results started to come in, and it appears he will attempt to make a last stand in South Carolina, which votes after Nevada later this month.
