*On February 6 it was reported that with 99.9 percent of precincts reporting in Iowa's Democratic primary, Buttigieg received 26.2 percent of Iowa's delegate count while Sanders received 26.1 percent. Buttigieg insisted that he was the clear winner, yet Sanders pointed to his lead in the popular-vote totals, and predicted that he would have the same number of Iowa's national convention delegates as Buttigieg.<ref>NOLAN D.

*While himself acting as a proxy servant of the devil, on February 8 Buttigieg said religious conservatives are making a “deal with the devil” so that the federal judiciary can be stacked with nominees from a Republican president, thereby inferring that President Trump is as the devil.
“Does anybody really think that religious conservatives view Donald Trump as a religious [figure]?” Mr. Buttigieg said. “They’re riding a tiger, they’re making a deal with the devil knowing that they can get certain objectives met on the bench.”<ref>David Sherfinski, February 8, 2020.[https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/feb/8/pete-buttigieg-religious-conservatives-making-deal Pete Buttigieg: Religious conservatives making a 'deal with the devil' for federal judiciary] The Washington Times - Saturday, Retrieved 02/09/20</ref>
