Conditions are ripe for a contested Democratic convention in 2020

The 2020 Iowa Democratic caucuses were historic.

They look to be the first caucuses in which at least four candidates reached or exceeded 15% of the vote. In fact, they mark the first time in any Democratic primary or caucuses that at least four candidates reached or exceeded at least 15% since all caucuses and primary contests became proportional with a 15% threshold to earn delegates in 1992. It’s also the first time since 1992 in which the leader of the Democratic caucuses received under 35% of state delegates.

The Iowa results point to a potential primary mess in which no candidate wins a majority of pledged delegates before the convention. CONT.
