Scott Galindez reported the following in a December 22nd article on Reader Supported News:

On social media, where Sanders' grassroots revolution began, there were more Google searches for Sanders than for any other candidate. His campaign had the most retweeted tweet of the night, according to Twitter. He gained more followers on Twitter than any other candidate, and Facebook said people talked about Sanders more than any other candidate online.

After the debate, Sanders was named the winner by viewers who voted in large-sample polls from Time, PBS, The Wall Street Journal, Slate, Telegraph.co.uk and The Washington Times.

On Time's website, for example, 84 percent of the 27,246 who had taken the poll in the first 90 minutes after the debate said Sanders won.

Momentum In Iowa

For this most recent swing through Iowa, staffers had to move two rallies to larger venues. This seems to be in sync with the most recent CBS Battleground tracker poll that shows Sanders within 5 points of Clinton in Iowa and leading her by 14 points in New Hampshire.
