Shortly after 11 p.m. ET, no results had been reported — a much slower process than had been expected. At about the same time in the 2016 caucuses, roughly 90 percent of the vote had been reported. The party said it would release information about the results as soon as it passes quality control, adding that it was taking additional steps out of an abundance of caution.The fact, that we don't know if our democracy is working, should be front page fucking news tomorow
Oh
...
they actually lost the votes
holy shit
wait what
The dems used an app this year
and their backend failed
and votes were overwriting eachother
for the "satellite caucuses" only, not all of them
maybe they should've tested it
but that's 25% of the votes
may have been lost
sorry
have been lost
the question is what the party does about it
meanwhile
Republican caucuses are 99.9% reporting
and were fully in 2+ hours ago
Holy shit though, the Dems actually lost the votes
how much of iowa's population make up that republican vote
how do you let that happen
not much, since it was Trump versus 2 crazies, not even a real caucus
god
i hate NYT's website
"you must log in to read this"
it's really bad now that they make you log in
I will not
i refuse
"support independent journalism"
lol
What should Dems even do
I don't know
uh
I want to laugh at them a bit, but this is also really bad
can they ask to take another vote?
If they don't re-vote or something
yeah, they should have to
Apologize and ask for a re-vote
I don't know why the candidates all seem to have gone to bed
I feel like... in a functioning democracy, they all get on the phone with each other and try to coordinate a joint-statement
Nevada Dem federal account paid Shadow $58k in August, Iowa Dems state account paid Shadow $63,183 in two payments over Nov & Dec, suggesting app wasn't developed until just months ago? Both caucus states. Shadow is a spin-off from PACRONYM, a new Dem dark money/superPAC hybrid.I can't stop watching his trainwreck
It's so easy to pick out shill accounts right now
everyone saying "Golly gee, I'm glad they're tripple-checking to make sure they get things right"
every one of them is a shill
caucus ended nearly 5 hours ago now
And there are no votes
Does the DNC not know what this looks like
Does no one in the Party leadership see this
and not realize this is worse than "rigging" the 2016 election
Nate fucking Silver
is releasing his numbers now
apparently he had secret plants in a bunch of the caucuses
what is this
>40%
This is such a mess
re-fucking-vote
you absolute retards
