Sen. Bernie Sanders emerged as the winner in New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation primary Tuesday, but former mayor Pete Buttigieg trailed closely behind. Sen. Amy Klobuchar finished third.
“Thank you, New Hampshire,” Sanders told supporters. “Let me take this opportunity to thank the people of New Hampshire for a great victory tonight.”
But Sanders' narrow victory leaves the Democratic field unsettled with no clear frontrunner.
The Vermont senator had been heavily favored to win the state where he trounced Democrat Hillary Clinton in 2016 by more than 20 percentage points. In the days leading up to Tuesday's primary, Sanders had a comfortable lead in state polling by nearly 7 percentage points, according to an average by Real Clear Politics.
Sanders also had a home-field advantage, as he is the senator of neighboring Vermont and has also campaigned in the Granite State before.
Although Sanders will gain momentum from his win, it's not enough to allow him to break away from the pack.
