DES MOINES — The first signs of trouble came early.
As the smartphone app for reporting the results of the Iowa Democratic caucuses began failing last Monday night, party officials instructed precinct leaders to move to Plan B: calling the results into caucus headquarters, where dozens of volunteers would enter the figures into a secure system.
But when many of those volunteers tried to log on to their computers, they made an unsettling discovery. They needed smartphones to retrieve a code, but they had been told not to bring their phones into the “boiler room” in Des Moines.
As a torrent of results were phoned in from school gymnasiums, union halls and the myriad other gathering places that made the Iowa caucuses a world-famous model of democracy, it soon became clear that the whole process was melting down.
Volunteers resorted to passing around a spare iPad to log into the system. Melissa Watson, the state party’s chief financial officer, who was in charge of the boiler room, did not know how to operate a Google spreadsheet application used to input data, Democratic officials later acknowledged.
Others, desperate to verify results, began telling some precinct leaders to email photographs of their worksheets — the paper forms used to tally results — to a dedicated email address. But for hours, no one monitored the inbox. When it was finally opened Tuesday morning, there were 700 unread emails waiting, with photos that had been sent sideways; volunteers had to crane their necks to decipher the handwritten forms.
An hour after the caucuses began, the Iowa Democratic Party chairman, Troy Price, huddled in another room with other officials, none of them with a clear strategy to manage the unfolding chaos or answers to share with increasingly exasperated presidential campaigns.

The Democrats can't count but want to take over health care and electricity production?
It’s ok, the elites will be well cared for, and that is what matters, right?
Shakespearean farce. Don’t let them play with a ouija board!

Bingo - since the MSM has covered over every single misstep the elites have made since Woodrow Wilson, why would they waste time actually doing the hard work of figuring out what will actually work and trying to sell that?
The CFO cannot operate a spreadsheet.Did she also design the obamacare website??
LOL. That gif is just too funny!!!
Things that make you go hmmmm.
It’s almost as if the Democrat elitists WANTED to tank Iowa. They’ve long complained that this “fly-over” state holds too much sway in their nominating process by holding their caucus so early, & giving momentum to candidates the coastal elites wouldn’t otherwise support.
I would guess that may of those involved in this fiasco aspire to a position in the next Democrat administration to help run the federal government.
We can only hope it does not come to pass. Under the Peter Principle they have already topped out.
It took 4 people to write this dreck?
Specialists in spin, woke, grammar and spelling.
Counting, correcting, and caring about being right are all ways of "acting white."
And our election process.
Which movie is that from?
They all also claim they would terrorists who kill thousands roam freely.
The first signs of trouble at the Iowa Caucuses came early.
<><> the smartphone app had been ok'ed last fall by Harvard's Harvard’s “Defending Digital Democracy Project”
to develop strategies and systems to protect results and deal with misinformation.
<><> The Harvard group included "party campaign experts” and experts in
(A) cybersecurity, (B) national security, (C) technology and (D) election administration.
<><> fortuitously, the Harvard group simulated different ways “things could go wrong” on caucus night.
<><> (cue maniacal laugh machine here).
<><> but a simple task like reporting the results began failing last Monday night.
<><> "quick-thinking" Democrat party officials then instructed precinct leaders to move to Plan B:
<><> plan B had precincts call-in results into caucus hdq in Des Moines, to be entered into a secure system by volunteers.
<><> but when volunteers tried to log on, they discovered they needed smartphones to retrieve a code,
<><> the caucus team they had been told NOT to bring phones into the “boiler room” in Des Moines.
<><> a torrent of results were phoned in from gyms, union halls and elsewhere, places that made the Iowa caucuses a world-famous "model of democracy,"
<><> it soon became clear that the whole smart-phone, app process was melting down.
<><> desperate volunteers resorted to passing around a spare iPad to log into the system
<><> other Dems , desperate to verify results, were telling precinct leaders to email photos of worksheets that tallied results — to a dedicated email address.
<><> for hours, no one monitored the inbox; finally opened Tues AM, there were 700 emails with photos sent sideways;
<><> volunteers faced the task of deciphering the handwritten forms.
<><> Iowa Demo Party chair, Troy Price, huddled with other Democrat officials,
<><> alas, no Democrat had a clear strategy to manage the unfolding chaos with exasperated presidential campaigns.
So it makes perfect sense to let these incompetent clowns take over the entire health care industry.
They’ll get it right this time.

...and these people want to control the rest of us....
They cant even count.............
