South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg declared himself the winner in Iowa after technical glitches and snafus prevented the state party from announcing any caucus results Monday night.

Buttigieg, who was hoping to get a boost out of the nation's first caucus state to drive past more seasoned rivals, went beyond any of the other Democratic presidential contenders his his caucus-night speech.

'We don't know all of the results. But we do know that by the time it's all said and done, Iowa: you have shocked the nation. Because by all indications we are going on to New Hampshire victorious,' Buttigieg told cheering supporters - in the kind of statement that might ordinarily follow a strong measure of public information.

Instead there was no official result in any form, and the Iowa Democratic Party rushed out a statement promising that they had not been hacked and would now be using paper results with a count which will stretch into daylight on Tuesday morning.

"technical glitches and snafus prevented the state party from announcing any caucus results Monday night."

Yeah, that's the way it begins with the commies.. first the voting machines fail, then the electric goes off, after that there's no food on the shelves... After that they collect a bunch of people up and shoot'um...

Presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg’s campaign contributed money to the technological firm whose voting app that 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.” (photo proof on the website) Also, the firm is run by veterans of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign.

Thats not the true and full meaning of the word. It is a military term that refers to chaos yes, but usually caused by much higher up the chain (oak leaf cluster) that have no idea of what really goes on on the ground. Take a look at a scene in the movie Heartbreak Ridge with Clint Eastwood for an example.

I’d say Tulsi Gabbard should claim victory, she has 0% just like the rest of them.

With no results in and no poll showing him in even the top 2.

They can't even decide which restroom to use, what makes you think they can decide on a candidate?

On the Republican side, Weld and Walsh have declared victory and are moving on to New Hampshire ...

They've crossed the 1% threshold and have nowhere to go but up ...
