HISTORY OF THE IOWA CAUCUS DEBACLE UP CLOSE:
Iowas Republican and Democratic Parties and their app and web development vendors partnered last fall with (cough)
Harvards "Defending Digital Democracy Project" to develop strategies and systems to protect results and deal with misinformation.
They group included (cough) party campaign experts Robby Mook and Matt Rhodes, experts in (A) cybersecurity, (B) national security,
(C) technology and (D) election administration. Fortuitously, the group simulated different ways things could go wrong on caucus night. Mook is 2016 campaign manager for Hillary Clinton, and Rhodes is Mitt Romneys 2012 campaign manager.
Out of sheer public-spiritededness, they helped develop a video to alert campaigns to warning signs of hacking and misinformation.

ROTFLMAO!
“Biden surrogates are saying maybe we can’t trust any of the results and Buttigieg has just declared himself the winner.”
If Americans cannot see that this entire “voting” process is rigged that this point, there’s no helping us!

Liz, lest we forget: the 'Ratz are a private club and they can vote for their own representatives as they see fit.
We need to disabuse ourselves of the notion that either political faction is in any way a true function of government.
We should be content just to point and laugh (but never use their software).
Love your work!
