The Democratic Primaries: What Can We Learn From Iowa and New Hampshire?

Voters caucused in Iowa on February 3, 2020 and the first primary election in the nation was held in New Hampshire on February 11— just two days before this talk. What can these early and limited results tell us about what the electorate is thinking and what might come next? A panel of professors from the Department of Political Science discussed these questions and others from the audience.
