First ever four way split in IA-NH, D and R.

From NBC's Andy Merten and Domenico Montanaro
In the modern primary era, this is the first four-way split in Iowa and New Hampshire in the Republican and Democratic races. In other words, there is no precedent for what's taken place in this election -- not in the generation since Iowa and New Hampshire have mattered together. Since 1976, when there have been winners in all four states, there has never been four different candidates who have won these two states.

YEAR GOP-NH IA DEM-NH IA
1976 Ford Ford Carter Carter (2nd to uncommitted)
1980 Reagan Bush Carter Carter
1984 Reagan NA Hart Mondale
1988 Bush Dole Dukakis Dukakis
1992 Bush NA Tsongas Harkin
1996 Buchanan Dole Clinton NA
2000 McCain GWB Gore Gore
2004 GWB NA Kerry Kerry
2008 McCain Huckabee Clinton Obama

Dick Gephardt won Iowa in 1988, not Dukakis
