2020 Iowa Democratic caucuses results (FULL LIVE STREAM)

On Feb. 3, voters will finally start the process of choosing a Democratic presidential nominee with the Iowa caucuses. The Washington Post’s Libby Casey hosts live coverage from Des Moines, with news and analysis from Post reporters in Iowa and Washington, D.C. The Post will bring you the latest results and put them in context as the nation heads into a very busy couple of weeks in the race for the White House.

The caucus process is complicated, but the outcome has a big impact on the country’s political landscape. The victor and close runners-up get a significant boost heading into the rest of the primary season. However, winning Iowa doesn’t always translate to a candidate winning the party’s nomination. Instead of holding a straightforward primary vote like most states, Iowans hold caucuses to determine how many delegates to the national party conventions are allocated to each candidate.

Heading into the caucuses, the top four Democratic contenders in Iowa are Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), former vice president Joe Biden, former South Bend, Ind., mayor Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). Subscribe to The Washington Post on YouTube: https://wapo.st/2QOdcqK
