New NYT article just up reporting on all sorts of mostly minor inconsistencies and errors in the data from the caucuses. It is what I suspected when they initially started talking about quality control. I hope someone will put that article in LBN. If not, I will when I get somewhere I can.

I’d rather they get the people’s choices right then rush for media or any candidate

Example in this county below the county supervsr found Amy’s votes went to Steyer and Bernie’s went to Duvall

to their party some day . I saw a shot of the tabs and how they keep them at the county it looked like my great aunt’s grocery list
It’s not like someone is even submitting an excel sheet at the end was my take( although equal room for error ) I love pencils so cute and history/ tradition but show a mock up one during the election season at the history museum and have a real vote
plus so disenfranchising
I don’t think this is a cash strapped state
Get your voting machines out for your primary Iowa
This increase in transparency only opened the curtain on this even if the media story is it stalled reports

it's more of eliminating candidates who are not viable and then sending the ranked top choices for each precinct. Counting all the votes seemed to be a new problem here.

Someone just posted about the other problems and IA won’t revert back at this point

It really needs to be history imo just based on the unequal access to participation
