Seems like one issue was there are instances where the caucus chair didn’t have the app to upload the data (or it malfunctioned), so the chair had to collect data manually and call them in. The data was backed up by photos of the manual data sheets.

In the mean time, Trump's approval rating, (as reported by CNN, surprisingly) is now at 49%, his highest ever
and 3 points higher than BO at his same time in office.  Among Republicans only, his ratings is 92%.  Trump is
going to be tough to beat.
Gallup Poll also shows Trumps approval among Independent voters at 42%. Up from 37% right before the impeachment started. That is tremendous as well as the 49% you reported.

Iowa Dem party blames caucus fiasco on ‘coding issue,’ vows to release results in afternoon

Quote
DES MOINES, Iowa – The morning after a technical meltdown delayed the reporting of the Iowa caucus results – causing chaos in the political world -- the Iowa Democratic Party blamed the debacle on a “coding issue” in its reporting app and pledged to release the caucus results starting late Tuesday afternoon.

The party -- under the gun and facing the possibility that Iowa could lose its cherished half-century hold spot kicking off the presidential primary and caucus nominating calendar -- stressed Tuesday morning that the debacle “did not impact the ability of precinct chairs to report data accurately.” They claimed to have now fixed the issue.

“We have every indication that our systems were secure and there was not a cybersecurity intrusion. In preparation for the caucuses, our systems were tested by independent cybersecurity consultants,” Iowa Democratic Party, or IDP, chairman Troy Price spotlighted in a long-awaited statement.

That the IDP jumped to "cybersecurity" actually makes me questions more what happened.  To me, that stunk of a distraction measure. . .

Biden camp has 'real concerns' about Iowa caucus process

Quote
There are serious issues regarding the failure of the Iowa caucuses voting app that should deeply concern the entire American electorate and cast a cloud over the final results, said Biden deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield on Tuesday.

Bedingfield appeared on CNN's "New Day" to discuss a letter sent by Biden's campaign to the Iowa Democratic Party asking for a full explanation of their methods of quality control before the release the final numbers.

“You see in the letter we have real concerns about the integrity of the process," she said. "I think there were significant failures in the process last night that should give voters concern. You obviously had the app failure, the app that precinct captains were using to report in their results failed.

"You had the phone system where precinct captains, there were reports of them getting frustrated -- not being able to report out their results, hanging up," Bedingfield continued. "Then you have the presidential preference cards, which are essentially the paper trail for the app, which we already know failed."

Based on reports, the software app that failed to report caucus final numbers was written by a company called "Shadow", to which 2020 Dem candidate Pete Buttigieg contributed tens of thousands of dollars.

Quote
Presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg's campaign contributed money to the technological firm whose voting app contributed to
reporting delays in the Iowa caucuses.

Federal Election Commission filings reveal that Buttigieg's campaign gave tens of thousands of dollars to Shadow on July 23, 2019,
for "software rights and subscriptions."

Shadow, a technology company that has an investor in the Democratic digital nonprofit organization ACRONYM, was also paid $60,000
over two installments by the Iowa Democratic Party to build an app to help make caucus voting easier and faster for precinct volunteers.
Filings also reveal that the Nevada Democratic Party paid Shadow $58,000 for "website development."

Another glaring example of the failures tied to Democrats.  Need I remind everyone of the spectacular ACA Obamacare website launch?  And the subsequent relaunch 6 months later?   :wacko:

Lots of conspiracy theories out there that Buttigieg was responsible for the "intentional problems" with the app.   :tinfoil:

Now it makes more sense why Buttigieg is claiming victory in Iowa. . . :hmm:

We know the Russians interfered, and that it was the DNC & Hillary who paid for it.  Same as in Iowa 2020, I'm sure.

After the Iowa caucuses, and the results were delayed so long, all the candidates showed 0% each -- with the 4 top-polling candidates all claiming victory!!

I guess this shows the Democrats have become Socialists -- everyone got the same thing:  a goose egg! 

Equal outcome sucks when the outcome is "not good".

What a clown show the Iowa caucus has turned out to be. After the app failed then the phones failed. The phone system was their backup plan and it failed. Does anyone really believe this? Does anyone really believe the Democrats are capable of running this country if they can’t even count a few votes? They can do a complete manual count in less than 24 hours in a national election. But they can’t count a few votes in 2 days? This is due to the civil war going on inside of the party. They can’t on who to make the winner of the Iowa caucus. All they know if they can’t make Bernie the winner. There is still only 71% of the votes reported.

What surprised me is they made Buttigieg the winner so far. I guess if they want to keep Sanders and Warren from winning and Biden’s showing was so miserable that Buttigieg is the lesser of all evils. What the Democrats are even more afraid of is Warren dropping out because her supporters will switch to Bernie giving him a major majority.

The biggest problem is they couldn’t give Bloomberg the win because he received zero votes. So they have to give them to someone other than Bernie and Warren.

DNC got hacked.

DNC emails were posted to WikiLeaks.

Former DNC chair Li'l Debbie W-S and many other Dim Congress members hired Pakistani criminals at higher-than-customary contractor rates to do IT administration on their government computers.

Senator Feinstein hired a Chinese SPY to be her driver for 20 years.

Hillary Clinton destroyed electronic devices and deleted 33,000+ emails, stored very highly classified information on illegal servers, violated record-keeping laws, and didn't understand what "wiping a computer drive" meant.

Barack Obama couldn't properly oversee the website that was the public face of his most ambitious achievement which cost a billion dollars and was delayed another 6 months after failing upon initial programs start.

The "Cars for Clunkers" program under Obama was just as poorly executed, taking some dealers 6 hours to enter and submit ONE contract.

Benghazi was 100% preventable.

Bill Clinton had several chances to stop 911, including taking out Bin Laden, and chose not to.

And these are the people who say they have the answers to Climate Change, Universal Health Care, Open Borders, Illegal Alien Amnesty, sanctuary cities, gun control, mental health, illegal drug overdoes and addiction, fixing the VA, ending the wars in the Middle East, etc, etc, etc


THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BE GIVEN THE POWER TO RUN (RUIN) OUR LIVES. 

They want to

kill fracking (and our energy independence),
over-tax anyone who has the capital to create jobs and innovative ideas (which would give rise to calls for "REAL Socialism", since it'll look like capitalism had failed),
take over the entire healthcare industry (1/6th of the economy),
tear down all border barriers,
continue regime change wars around the world (look at the reactions every time Trump starts to withdraw troops anywhere),
and so on.

I don't care who gets the nomination.  After the Iowa caucus showed yet another DNC failure -- and in grand fashion -- nobody should trust a Democrat with running a lemonade stand, let alone the entire country!  :shake:

Looking at one odds website today, it gave Trump a 59.99% chance of being re-elected.  Next highest was Bernie with a 16.7% chance of being the next President.  How they figure these odds is way beyond my pay grade.

Trump will probably win. But I think Bernie could give him a run for his money tho.
