On the night of the Iowa primary, national news outlets are reporting that Illinois Sen. Barack Obama has enough delegate support to be the presumptive nominee of the Democratic party.

Obama scored a victory in the leadoff Iowa caucus, which gave an early boost on the path to securing the nomination. Obama returned to Iowa last month, and officials from both parties agree Iowa will be a key state in November.

Iowans are not voting for presidential candidates in today's primary election.
