Iowa Caucus Results

Senator Ted Cruz snagged the GOP win in Iowa, while Hillary Clinton edges ahead for the Democrats.

The first caucus of the year led to some surprises in Iowa. On the Republican ticket, Ted Cruz came ahead of polling front-runner Donald Trump, and Marco Rubio finished third. The Democratic side of the ticket was much closer -too close to call through most of the evening- with Hillary Clinton being named the winner  just ahead of Senator Bernie Sanders, who is claiming victory for keeping the race so close. The caucus also ended some presidential runs, with Democrat Martin O’Malley suspending his campaign, as well as GOP runner Mike Huckabee.

The next caucus takes place in New Hampshire in one week.
