Buttigieg Pulls Back On Victory Speech
- 4 years ago
Pete Buttigieg claimed victory in the Iowa caucus on Monday night.
However, a technical problem is delaying official results.
Buttigieg later backtracked on his comment.
He said his campaign just being in Iowa was a victory because people didn't believe he would make it as far as he did.
He told MSNBC: "To reach the position that we did was a clear victory for our campaign."
Buttigieg had previously said on Twitter that his campaign was "headed to New Hampshire victorious."
