Buttigieg, Sanders campaigns request Iowa caucus re-canvass

|
Bernie Sanders' and Pete Buttigieg's presidential campaigns filed requests Monday for a partial recanvass of the results of Iowa's Democratic caucuses.
The Sanders campaign cited "mathematical errors and inconsistencies" in more than two dozen locations that it says would change the results if amended. And the Iowa Democratic Party said the Buttigieg campaign requested the party check the results in 66 precincts.
On Sunday, the state party released updated caucus results that gave the former South Bend, Indiana, mayor a lead over Sanders of two state delegate equivalents out of 2,152 counted, or 0.09 percentage points.
Iowa awards 41 national delegates in its caucuses. As it stands, Buttigieg has 13 and Sanders has 12. Trailing behind are Elizabeth Warren with eight, Joe Biden with six and Amy Klobuchar with one.
