Where exactly does the municipal bond underwriting process work?

Hey Guys,

I have a quick question, usually for a municipal bond, would the underwriter usually buy up all the bonds from the issuer and then go about slowly selling it off to investors? Could anyone be as kind as to give me a overview of what happens? Thank you!!!!
