That's Buttigieg and Klobuchar over-performing, not Sanders under-performing.  538 had Sanders at 26%.  He currently has 26.1% of the votes.  He is exactly where he is expected to be. 

This is clear spin. Obviously, you're a bernie guy. However, the fact of the matter is (and I already posted the picture) Bernie's numbers were low 30s high 20s with only a couple of polls putting him mid 20s. The average was 28. He settled at 26. He definitely did not win. Again, this region is his strong hold. This is where he needs to pick up his delegates.  He failed to do so. 

Nope, the polling average was at 26% just before the election: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-primary-d/new-hampshire/

As such, Bernie did about as expected, just slightly below it with 25.7%

Buttigieg and Klobuchar overperformed while Warren and Biden underperformed. Steyer and Tulsi also did a bit better than expected.
