This R&D provides resources on the Iowa caucuses that took place on Monday. Texas Senator Ted Cruz upset Donald Trump on the Republican side, while former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton narrowly defeated Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders in the Democratic contest. Trump has said that his loss was illegitimate because Cruz spread stories that Ben Carson was dropping out of the contest, which did not occur. Iowa has narrowed the field on both sides with former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley dropping out of the Democratic race and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, and former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum doing so in the Republican race. The next presidential contest will take place next Tuesday in New Hampshire, which is the first state to hold a primary in the 2016 cycle.
