7. The Closest Thing To A Guarantee

This weekend statistic strikes me as the closest thing we've seen yet to a guarantee of a Sanders victory in Iowa. The 2016 cycle had 2 key problems in the Hawkeye State:

1) A relative lack of coordinating infrastructure by the Sanders campaign on caucus night; and

2) An inadequate expectation by the DNC as to the infrastructure needs at caucus locations.

Both of those issues have been addressed. Add to that the paper trail, allowing voters to come and express their candidate preference without the need to stay for the entire caucus event, and 2020 looks YUGE. These jaw dropping numbers from Boone, IA are icing on the cake!
