The Iowa caucuses reveal not only a Democratic Party deliriously incompetent at handling a vote tally this from the folks who have been screaming about voting fraud and irregularities for years but at war with itself in a way that could lead to political disorder that will make the counting disaster look like a garden party.
What little we can glean from entrance polls reveals the way in which the schematics of the intra-Democratic conflict in 2020 are very stark.
Its Joe Biden with big numbers with people 65 and older and nobody else. Its Bernie Sanders with huge numbers among people 18-29 and mediocre numbers with everybody else.

Great opening paragraph. Makes me smile.
Pretty good points by the author on the demographic split and the problems it will present going into the convention and onward to November.
These poor Iowa democrats that are democrats because great great grandpappy was one . . .surely some of them are going to come to their senses. There comes a time when a reality check is in order.


Actually, the hold-up tonight is probably because
Biden came in 4th or worse! LOL!
4 Feb: WashingtonExaminer: Buttigieg campaign paid firm that developed voting app blamed for Iowa caucus delays
by Spencer Neale
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 Democratic digital nonprofit 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.”...
Robby Mook, the campaign manager for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 team, denied involvement in the voting app after Twitter users suggested he was behind the app’s development. Mook, who reportedly did have a role in preparing a video to alert campaigns of misinformation or hacking, instructed people to contact Iowa Democrats for more information on the botched results.

4 Feb: The Intercept: Sanders Campaigns Internal Caucus Numbers Show Them Winning Iowa, With Biden a Distant Fourth
by Ryan Grim, Aída Chávez, Lee Fang, Akela Lacy
The Sanders campaign reports it received 29.7 percent of the vote, closely followed by former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg at 24.6 percent. Sen. Elizabeth Warren came in at 21.2 percent, and former Vice President Joe Biden in fourth at 12.4 percent. Sanders put those numbers out shortly after Buttigieg finished his own, seemingly triumphant speech in Iowa. The party said it would release official results Tuesday...
The Sanders campaigns decision to release its internal results came after hours of frustration with the Iowa Democratic Party, whose app contributed to delays in the reporting of precinct results. The Iowa Democratic Party had kept the identity of the firm that created its app under wraps, claiming that divulging details would make the app vulnerable to hacking. As HuffPost first reported, the app was built by Shadow, a tech company owned by ACRONYM, a Democratic digital nonprofit that was launched in the wake of the 2016 election, pitching itself as a progressive answer to Republican dominance of the digital field. The company put out a statement early Tuesday morning saying it didnt provide technology to the state or national party, or to any campaigns, despite its founder writing a tweet last month celebrating Shadows launch...
Buttigiegs presumed rise in the Iowa caucus and Bidens fall follow weeks of volatility in polling. Last week, as Sanders surged, Buttigieg dropped in a number of polls, falling eight points since December in an Emersons Iowa poll, and losing two points in their national poll...

Funny, tho...
Democrats will claim its Trump/Russia fault.
By the time the morning news shows come on this will be the talking point.
Counting chickens? The dems have used even the slightest advantage to destroy America. Their success in this is incredible, since the 50s. Thaey are so far ahead of the good guys, on our side.. if there are many left.
Democrats said, if Trump wasnt removed, the election would be rigged - now we know which election
And we want these people in charge of the country?
Brokered convention? Two words: Hillary Clinton!
Dems might get Democratic Republic of the Congo to monitor their primaries.
I'm the winner!!!I'm the winner! I'm the winner!!!
I'm the winner!!!!!I'm the winner!!!I'm the winner!
Broken convention.
And in charge of healthcare? We’ll wind up going to the dentist for a colonoscopy.
