Iowa: A new road map has just begun.


                Last Monday the first primary election for both the democrats and republicans was held in the state of Iowa. The results where surprising, as trump was expected to win by a large margin according to several polls made prior to the election. And on the democrat side Sanders and Hillary where Clinton lead him by only 3 delegates. The primary shows how much of an influence the platforms of the candidates influence the polls regarding the outreach the candidate has.
   In the republican side Donald Trump was expected to win as a majority of the polls made in the state gave him a margin of defeating Senator Ted Cruz, But many of the voters feel more connected to Cruz, as he hails from a conservative family, appealing to the mainly christian voters in the state.
Meanwhile the polls in New Hampshire point to a big win for the mogul. Trump leads in mostly all polls against Cruz but this will be proven on Tuesday if the polls tell the truth.

                                                        Trump and Cruz


                                                     Sanders and Clinton
     In the democratic side Sanders and Clinton both surprised voters when both ended tie to tie, surprising many, as Clinton was expected to lead in the primaries. Clinton and Sanders have both had very similar proposals, but Sanders have distanced himself form the Obama's administration subjects during his presidential term. Meanwhile Clinton has praised the Obama administration while failing to acknowledge his wrongdoings.
  For the polls in New Hampshire Sanders is leading by almost 20 points, and is expected to win in the primaries on Tuesday. Nationwide Sanders is winning by a slim margin over Clinton.
