Former Vice President Joe Biden doesn't appear to have the highest of hopes about the New Hampshire primary.

Biden won't be in the state as the results from Tuesday's primary come in, as he will instead spend the evening in South Carolina, CNN reports. The New York Times notes Biden leaves New Hampshire while "staring down the possibility of a fourth — or even fifth — place" finish in the primary. The campaign says he'll address New Hampshire supporters via livestream.
