Voters in New Hampshire handed victories to Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Bernie Sanders on Tuesday, according to AP projections, as the first-in-the-nation primary state reshaped the race for the White House.

All the state’s polls closed at 8 p.m., with AP calling the results shortly thereafter. Trump had been the favorite to win on the Republican side, where the real race was the fight for second place — won,according to AP projections, by Ohio Gov. John Kasich.

Kasich staged a runner-up win after holding more than 100 town halls in the state and spending more time there than any other candidate. His second-place finish all-but-dooms Chris Christie’s campaign, who had hoped to finish first among the governors.

But his strong finish, on the back of the state’s moderates and independents, will be hard to replicate in the far more conservative South Carolina, where Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio will be hoping for a more robust showing. Kasich is hoping to stay alive through March 15, when his home state votes in a winner-take-all contest.

It’s unclear where the New Hampshire results will leave former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who looked likely to finish in third place, or businesswoman Carly Fiorina who trailed the pack with projections in the single digits. Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, expecting a loss, already headed to South Carolina.

On the Democratic side, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders had been forecast to handily defeat Hillary Clinton, but all eyes will be on the margin of victory, with the former Secretary of State’s campaign preparing to claim victory if they can narrow it to single digits. With around 25% of votes tallied, Sanders led Clinton by 18 points. Exit polls suggested the only age demographic Clinton won was seniors 65 and older.

Clinton spoke first on Tuesday night, addressing supporters after conceding victory to Sanders. “I still love New Hampshire and I always will,” she said. “Now we take this campaign to the entire country. We’re going to fight for every vote in every state.”

“People have every right to be angry, but they’re also hungry—they’re hungry for solutions. What are we going to do? And that is the fight we’re taking to the country.”

Sanders, who spoke directly after his Democratic rival, credited his victory with the “enthusiasm and excitement” of his young supporters, who helped drive turnout in New Hampshire to record levels.

“Together we have sent a message that will echo from Wall Street to Washington, from Maine to California,” he said. “And that is that the government of our great country belongs to all of the people, and not just a handful of wealthy campaign contributors and their Super PACs.”

Victory is validation of Sanders’ insurgent campaign, but he continues to trail Clinton in key states later in the calendar. Clinton’s campaign has struggled with how to handle Sanders’ candidacy, shifting between defining him as a rigid ideologue and a less-sincere hypocrite—while fighting speculation that a campaign staff shakeup would follow the New Hampshire results.

In terms of delegates to the Republican National Convention, this primary is relatively minimal, binding just 20 delegates—less than 1%—of the total. The delegates are divided proportionally among candidates that earn at least 10% of the statewide vote, with the remaining delegates going to the statewide winner. On the Democratic side, 24 delegates—an even smaller share of the larger Democratic convention—were awarded.

The next GOP debate, hosted by CBS on Saturday night in Greenville, S.C., should help winnow the field further, with only the top three finishers in Iowa, the top five finishers in New Hampshire, and the top five in national and South Carolina poll averages earning an invite. That means Christie, Kasich or Fiorina must finish in the top-five in New Hampshire to make the stage.

Democrats will travel from Manchester to Milwaukee, where the next debate will be held on Thursday night. From there they have 10 days until Nevada votes, and another week until South Carolina.
