Analysis: Anthony Zurcher, BBC North America reporter in New Hampshire
Donald Trump is back, and Bernie Sanders is booming. That's the clear takeaway from a New Hampshire primary night that ended with little drama at the top. Both the New York billionaire and the Democrat who derides the billionaire class appear posed to confirm their consistently large opinion poll leads here with double-digit wins.
For the last few weeks the drama on the Republican side has been the identity of the candidate who will finish second - and perhaps become the establishment candidate to take on Trump and Iowa caucuses winner Ted Cruz.
For a while it looked like that man would be Florida Senator Marco Rubio, but he seems destined for a middle-of-the-pack finish after a flop in Saturday's debate. Instead it could be John Kasich. But the Ohio governor has little in the way of campaign infrastructure set up in the southern states that vote next in the primary process.
Tuesday's results likely will lend little clarity to the question of who gets the backing of mainstream Republicans. That's good news for Mr Cruz and Mr Trump, who will benefit from a fractured establishment field for at least a while longer.
After the projections were announced, Mr Sanders tweeted: "When we stand together, we win. Thank you, New Hampshire!" He also urged his supporters to "stay in line" and continue voting, amid long queues and traffic outside polling stations.
The Clinton camp has acknowledged defeat in New Hampshire, with campaign manager Robby Mook saying they expected the race for the Democratic nomination "very likely" to be decided in March.
Mrs Clinton admitted before the polls that Mr Sanders had a natural advantage in New Hampshire because he represents the neighbouring state of Vermont as senator.
Mrs Clinton, who has more support from the Democratic establishment, narrowly won in Iowa.
