Nevada GOP presidential caucus officials will report the results of Tuesday night's contests using pictures snapped on their smartphones -- a marked contrast to the Microsoft-built app that was used to deliver results in Iowa.
The Wall Street Journal reported that GOP officials are hoping to avoid a repeat of the 2012, when final results in Nevada were not officially reported until days after the caucuses, long after news organizations had called the race for Mitt Romney.
In 2012, press reports noted that the hand counts in some counties were not finished more than a day after the polls closed because of discrepancies. The Las Vegas Sun said at the time that the process was marked by "disorganization, bickering and bumbling at nearly every turn."
While those setbacks did not cause much turmoil because of Romney's large margin of victory, the GOP results are expected to be much closer this year.
The Journal also reported that the combination of a competitive contest, an underfunded state party and a decentralized process have officials bracing for some confusion on Tuesday.
There will be 130 caucus locations set up across the state to deal with the 1,700 precincts. According to the party, officials at each caucus location will tally the results and send them off to the county and state headquarters "via telephone and photo confirmation." The Associated Press also has been tasked with delivering the results from Nevada to the public and flagging any "data issues" with the numbers.
"A smartphone picture of the tally sheet will be sent to the party," a fact sheet provided by the party reads. "Results will be compiled and reviewed by the party, and shared with AP.

Remember in Iowa how every candidates numbers were, more or less, what the polls said? Except for Rubio..... his numbers were DOUBLE what any poll had.
It's amazing how Rubio had nearly 25% of the vote even though not a single poll at the highest numbers, the day before, could fine Rubio at even 12%. Rubio did not even campaign in Iowa until 3 weeks before the Primary.
Finally, the media and no polls could barely find Rubio supporters, but some how Microsoft, Rubis's second largest donor...., had Rubio at 24%.
I'm sorry, but when I see this Smart Phone count. That's an indication there will be Fraud. I hope all other campaigs are watchers at every poll and communicate.
I don't think the GOPe is bold enough to take it from Trump, but I think they over inflate Rubio's when Cruz should easily come in second place.
This is the State of the Casino and secret government programs. So the State GOPe trying to inflate Rubio's numbers is not a stretch. It's desperation from the Establishment GOP when most people do not support them.
So the results will break down based on which campaign has the best photoshop skills.....
Why does that remind me of a certain candidate....? LOL
I don’t like this at all. To much of a window for some hanky-panky.
Drudge Headline: Rubes making no predictions. Guess he knows.
Has anybody already posted
What could go Wrong??
And no Nevada polls today? I smell a big GOP rat.
Yeah, but Rubes saying he’s “making no predictions,” translation, “I’m cooked like a chimichanga.”
Yep the Fix is in.
Every canidates team needs to be watching the vote counters for Rubio.
Rubio will not win Nevada, but the Establishment will ,ONCE AGAIN LIKE IN IOWA..., will attempt to inflate Rubio’s numbers to give him a boost going into next week’s Super Tuesday.
The Establishment GOP KNOWS Rubio has to get 2nd place or it will be really tough winning next week’s Super Tuesday. 3rd place is no longer acceptable.
Cruz supporters better have their watchers all over the place in Nevada against the Establishment’s Plan B Rubio
Political news ping - election news such as primary election results, registration dates, state party changes such as rules in states, voter fraud alerts, news of back door deals with GOPe or exposing a new truth about a candidate,
Please let me know if you want on or off the list.
