[ cheers ] >> reporter: democratic contenders shocked by the lack of results, rallied supporters to cheer what might be. >> by the time all is said and done, iowa, you have shocked the nation. >> when those results are announced, i have a good feeling we're going to be doing very, very well here in iowa. [ cheers ] >> reporter: the mess in iowa means the battle for the democratic nomination has stumbled out of the gate. >> i got to say i'm a numbers guy, we're still waiting on numbers from tonight. >> reporter: iowa democrats were stunned and confused. >> i don't really understand. it's pretty vague when we're just told that the results were delayed and there's no reason given. >> in the end, like, there are numbers. so where are the freaking numbers? >> reporter: precinct chairs reported glitches with an app that was supposed to be used to send results to the party. tina weber, precinct secretary, said she had to rely on other methods. >> we couldn't have people waiting in that room, packed in, hot, just because the app wasn't working. >> reporter: those who tried to call in their results experienced long holds. >> thank you for calling the iowa democratic party's caucus hotline. all of our representatives are currently busy. >> reporter: in a statement, the iowa democratic party said, "this was simply a reporting issue. the app did not go down, and there is not a hack or any intrusion." the day before the caucus, we asked state party chairman troy price if he had any fear about tech glitches or other problems. do you have a nightmare scenario in this, what do you do about it? >> these are probably the most prepared we've ever been as a party for these caucuses. we've run through different scenarios, but i can tell you we're ready. >> reporter: former presidential candidate julian castro, now a supporter of senator warren, said the delay proves one thing -- >> this shouldn't be the way we do this. >> reporter: dallas county democratic party chair brice smith tried to put the best face on things. >> it's better to get the information right the first time than to three days later go, oh this is what happened. >> reporter: candidates shifted their attention to the next contests as the night went on. >> east to new hampshire, then west to nevada. >> it's on in new hampshire. [ cheers ] nevada, south carolina, well beyond. >> well it sounds like troy price may need to reassess their readiness in iowa. i want to talk about the voters. they gave up their evening to participate in the caucus. what's the mood today? >> reporter: frustrated, antsy, expectant. so are the campaigns. they wanted to campaign and win in iowa, not have an undetermined outcome. think of the voters that caucused for the very first time, this is not what they expected either. at some point today we will find out a winner. until then, the most conspicuous loser, the iowa democratic party. >> not a good look for iowa or the democrats. major, thank you very much. democratic presidential contender pete buttigieg joins us now from concord, new hampshire. first on "cbs this morning," as you know, he's a former mayor of south bend. mayor pete, good morning. how frustrated are you today? >> good morning. >> hello. >> i think it's safe to say no one in the country is more impatient than i am to hear the official results from the party. but we've also put out the results that we've got from over 1,200 districts, our precinct organization reported based on the procedure that they were trained to do. and based on that, it was a phenomenal night for us. >> we heard you say "we're going on to new hampshire victorious," but how can you do that when the official reports are not? shouldn't you wait? >> we have the results from our organization, and if you look at what we were able to do, what happened last night, the fact that this campaign was able to gather support in urban, suburban, and rural areas alike, in counties that hillary clinton won, counties that donald trump won, we are thrilled and absolutely consider that a victory. >> the state party called the campaigns to an emergency meeting last night. what did they tell the campaigns about what the problem was, and when do you actually expect to see official results? >> you know, as far as i know, we still don't have a time for when they're supposed to let us know the official results. safe to say nobody's more impatient i am given how fantastic everything we've seen was coming out of last night. but what we do know is that there's a paper trail that they'll be verifying this based on paper, and given whatever happened technically, that's good news. >> yeah, always good to have a paper trail. to gayle's point, mayor, the sanders campaign also saying they're essentially victorious. there are people online saying that your claim of using the "v" word, i think the hash tag is #mayorcheat. do you think it was early to use the "v" words? >> no. looking at the data we got, it was an extraordinary night. we are absolutely victorious coming into new hampshire. this is a campaign that when we launched a year ago, people said you're not a senator, you're not a national name, what business does a person from the middle of the country have running for president? said we shouldn't be here. here we are in the position we're in, coming into new hampshire for what we think will be another historic night a week from today. >> what do you say now to people who -- when the results come in on questioning the integrity of the results? >> again, the good news there is a paper process that can verify this. and of course the way the caucus process works, folks are in the room, they see how everybody aligns. so it's verifiable, but still very, very frustrating. >> you and the other candidates have been party understand to undermine party unity as you campaign against each other. now this chaotic result out of iowa. does the fact that there are multiple candidates calling themselves victorious, does that create chaos that helps the president spin a narrative that the democrats don't know what they're doing? >> we are competing, and you're going to see this competition play out. but what we all know and agree on are the values that bring us together. and the absolute need to deliver a new and better presidency. >> i would imagine that the white house would say you're doing the hula today because it looks like a hot mess for the democrats. what does it say that the democrats couldn't get something so important right out the gate? >> well, again, i'm certainly feeling impatient and eager to get those official numbers. i hope that doesn't take away from the extraordinary thing that happened yesterday, that across communities large and small, with -- regardless of how the counties voted in the past, including counties that famously swung from president obama to president trump, we have demonstrated the ability to put together that coalition that is going to beat donald trump in the fall. >> all right. mayor pete, it all hands like you're trying -- mayor pete it sounds like you're trying to put a good face on a bad situation. thank you. political correspondent ed o'keefe flew overnight from iowa to new hampshire through a cloud of uncertainty, i expect, ed. pete buttigieg, you heard, talked to us about his campaign's estimate from iowa. he says he's the winner. does he have reason to be confident do you think? >> reporter: no, not necessarily, anthony. frankly, for a candidate who has talked about his concerns with the misinformation that the president has spread and someone who has campaigned on his belief in science and facts, to be spreading incomplete facts is astounding. he needs to do that, he wants to come to this state with a big head of steam and try to prevail going into tuesday. let's take a look at an example at the data that his campaign is sharing. the numbers from his team, unverified by iowa democrats and cbs news, say he captured 28% of the state's delegates from three quarters of the reporting precincts, that's only 75% of the potential data. he isn't the only candidate declaring victory or some kind of victory now. senator bernie sanders' team put out their own numbers from nearly 40% of caucus precincts, even fewer locations, indicating that he was in the lead and buttigieg was in second place. again, the numbers are unverified by the democratic party of iowa and cbs news. without any real answers in iowa, presidential hopefuls are here in new hampshire trying to find some sense of momentum and realizing that any momentum they could have gotten from a definitive victory last night at least is gone for now. as one aide to one of the campaigns told me after we all landed here in new hampshire this morning, quote, this deflates any potential momentum for any candidate. remember, the state of the union is tonight, the impeachment vote is tomorrow. there's a new debate friday night that could reset the race entirely. and everybody should just throw out new hampshire and focus -- throw out iowa and focus here on new hampshire. that's the word. one senior aide to one of these campaigns. >> a pretty astounding statement, to throw out iowa, ed. new hampshire's a week away. what are the candidates doing to get ready? >> reporter: well, there are dozens of events across new hampshire today as these candidates head to diners and community centers and will be meeting with voters across the state. most candidates landed here directly from iowa early this morning including senator amy klobuchar, andrew yang,and elizabeth warren. elizabeth warren said, quote, when i left iowa i said it's too close to call, and it is, but i feel good, unquote. not all of the candidates are as optimistic. we're expecting joe biden's team especially to raise major concerns later today if, when the caucus results are released. if the state democratic party doesn't produce a paper trail for all roughly 1,700 precincts, we can expect his lawyers will go to court. it will be a two-prong a battle, a legal battle to figure out what went wrong, but also a p.r. or expectations battle. remember, in the closing days of this campaign in iowa, it looked as biden wasn't going to do that well. he would like to diminish or raise concerns about the results as much as possible to give him potentially a better showing in new hampshire and send him off into nevada and south carolina. some republicans are already seizing on the mishap to mock democrats. donald trump jr. tweeted, quote, everyone's excited about the prospeck of turning over our entire health care system, he said about democrats, write figure they couldn't get an election done, how could they run the country? >> seems the jokes are going to start writing themselves. thank you so much. president trump is appearing to rejoice over the confusion in iowa. he tweeted "the democrat caucus is an unmitigated disaster. nothing works, just like they ran the country." tonight the president will deliver the state of the union address in the same house chamber where he was impeached a day before the u.s. senate is expected to acquit him. nancy cordes is on capitol hill with more on that story. nancy, the president sure has a lot to discuss tonight. how likely is it you think that he'll bring up impeachment? >> reporter: well, republicans are urging him not to dwell on it in the state of the union, they would rather he focus on the economy or plans for the upcoming year. they acknowledge it may be hard for him to resist going after new critics from the left and the right. >> the president's behavior was shameful and wrong. >> alaska senator lisa murkowski is the latest republican to condemn president trump, though she said she would not vote to remove him. >> i cannot vote to convict. the constitution provides for impeachment but does not demand it in all instances. >> reporter: she joins a series of republicans who say they will vote to acquit. >> the house didn't prove trump committed a crime. >> reporter: house impeachment managers and the president's legal team made their first pleas yesterday, ahead of wednesday's vote. >> you can't trust this president to do the right thing. not for one minute, not for one election, not for the sake of our country. you just can't. >> reporter: the defense insisted the democrats' case does not meet the high bar for impeachment. >> the only appropriate result here is to acquit the president and to leave it to the voters to choose their president. >> mr. cotton -- >> no. >> reporter: senate democrats are still angry about friday's close vote against new witnesses. >> we must call this what it was. it's a cover-up. >> your fear of this bully cannot outweigh your duty to the american people. >> reporter: one democrat who is on the fence, west virginia's joe manchin. his state went for president trump by 42 points in 2016. yesterday he proposed a middle ground. >> his behavior cannot go unchecked by the senate and censure would allow a bipartisan statement condemning his unacceptable behavior in the strongest terms. roy his proposal has not gained much traction yet. the president continued to attack the process from the sidelines monday. republicans are urging him not to dwell on impeachment when he addresses congress and the nation tonight. >> there's a lot of things that he needs to talk about. >> we've got the hottest economy we've ever had. i would stick on that. >> news everywhere you look. thank you. we'll bring you tonight's state of the union address in a cbs news special report. right now, it is 7:19. time to check your bundle up this morning. it is a chilly start to the of the day. breezy to windy conditions. definitely feels even colder outside. as we head through the afternoon, enjoyed the sunshine. tomorrow, the start of a warm- up for >> for today, looking at 56 in san francisco, oakland and fremont. and 56 for concord. there we go with that warm-up as we head throughout the workweek. effect, friday, the warmest day of the week. we have much more ahead including the extreme measures now being taken to stop the spread of coronavirus as the number of cases in china rises sharply. that's coming up on "cbs this morning." sharply. that's coming up on "cbs this morning." ♪ ♪ wherever we want to go, autosave your way there with chase. chase. make more of what's yours. tgone crazy about food but let's not forget the best thing of all taste to us at best foods taste is everything and we believe great taste starts with great ingredients like cage free eggs and sustainable tomatoes because at best foods we're on the side of food. for powerful relief from cold and flu symptoms without a prescription, try theraflu multi-symptom. theraflu dissolves in seconds, so it's ready to work before your first sip, and absorbs quickly to target and attack 8 cold and flu symptoms fast. try theraflu. it's a lifelong adventure finding all of these new connections all the time. greater details. richer stories. and now with health insights. get your dna kit at ancestry.com. pets know what they want, and so do we. that's why you'll find real meat, poultry or fish and wholesome veggies in delicious rachael ray nutrish recipes. rachael ray nutrish. guys! i said i'd be back. real recipes. real ingredients. real good.
