I already clocked someone earlier about the fact that the DNC has been in charge of the Iowa stuff and they essentially took over :rip:

Honestly, I was blaming the IDP too for a while, but Tom Perez needs to NOT throw them under the bus like this, they tried to fix it and it was their interference that made this whole thing a bigger mess.

A nightmare. Literally a nightmare.

The Democratic Party and the establishment that runs and controls it is so incompetent that it's unbelievable. Like they can't even get what should be a fairly simple process done in a small state with not that many people compared to many other states?? If they're this bad now, how can we trust them with more complex and larger states??

The whole lot of them need to resign or be fired and replaced.

Look at what I just posted before. Texas will be a mess. 

I live in Texas. I will check three times my selection on the machine cause I don’t trust anything at this point.

Oh look, we agree :green: 

It is too late to do a recount that people should trust. The DNC specifically is not trustworthy, and the IDP is incompetent at best. There were errors, they were caught, but the DNC decided to slowly release the results PURPOSEFULLY, and there is no sense in doing a recount that we can't trust either. Just let it go. Bernie and Pete have the same congressional delegate count right now. 

The only obvious kii about this to me is that we are supposed to get the rest of the results, that may very well show Bernie as the outright winner of the Iowa caucuses, and that this announcement is made just before they were to be released is... not lost on me. This STILL denies Bernie the "I won" narrative, they just can't do it :saladga:

This thing was a sham. Sanders could have won by even more and even if he did it would still be a sham. I hope Bernie supporters and undecided voters/first time voters who lean Bernie who are in NH, NV, and SC don’t feel disenchanted by this bullshit

They should have called a recount that same night and then publish the reviewed results. 

What’s interesting is didn’t they say they reviewed these results multiple times? Isn’t that why it’s taking so long?

And yet there were CLEAR inconsistencies that HAD to be called out to be fixed? 

Come on. 

 

You can’t have a recount “that night” when the precinct captains have gone to bed or mailed the results by snail mail. 

You’ve got a bunch of volunteers who weren’t prepared, didn’t understand the new system, and got frustrated when they were put on hold for hours. The system relies on volunteers and doesn’t have a ton of funding at the state level.

The caucus system is a mess, especially if it’s extremely close or if something goes wrong like this year. We clearly need to get rid of them and go to primary votes only. They tried to do that in 2016, maybe after this year they will go on and get rid of them altogether.

I said they should have called a recount that night, not that it should have been finalized that night. 

Instead, we got a gradual release of results that were inconsistent. Despite them saying they were being reviewed.

They should either realign the number of delegates each state is worth or reduce the number of total available delegates and by doing so lowering the threshold to win the nomination. 

It's unfair for Iowa but IDK how they can do this so-called recount and yet somehow have people believe the results.
