I do not think that I have read more than 2-3 articles even admitting that O'Malley exists. He is given almost zero coverage. Contrast that with the coverage lavished on people like Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, and Carly Fiorina.

And GOP voters still believe that the US media is liberal.

have SERIOUS problems.

Fortunately he is getting decent coverage in the local Iowa media, imo, from what I've seen from my MD couch.

Sanders finished in 1st with 53%, O'Malley with 24% for a strong 2nd and Hillary in 3rd with 15%

Yes, you read that right. O'Malley beat Hillary.

And he got delegates in multiple counties where Hillary got none. His retail politics is paying off.
