- After a disastrous meltdown in the Iowa caucus reporting system, the Iowa Democratic Party went almost a full day without releasing any results from Monday night's caucuses.
- The party held off on releasing any of the results until they were confident they had it right, but problems remain.
- On February 9, the party released national delegate figures showing Buttigieg with 14 delegates, Sanders with 12, Warren with 8, Biden with 6, and Klobuchar with one.
