They used a ****ing app? Why?

Rachel Maddow almost certainly nails it.

Rachel Maddow almost certainly nails it.

They used an app 4 years ago, and by now 98% of the results were in. Something got royally farked up, and the fact that they aren't providing any details is horsecrap.

CNN called a precinct secretary who was on hold for an hour. Just as the conversation started he finally connected with the state party office. They hung up on him. Now he has to call in again.

I call bull****. There’s no way the media would let themselves get scooped by Joey Basement. They have better contacts and want nothing more than to be first.

CNN/Des Moines Register have about 2% reporting (35 of 1700). I'm guessing that's based on what their on site journalists reported in.

Maddow thought they didn’t start up because the app would do more. Apparently there have been issues with the app. She wonders if they don’t have the infrastructure on the ground to handle the phone-ins and manual tabulation.

A state Democratic party is a ****up. What a surprise

That backs up Maddow’s theory.

Every. Single. ****ing. Election.

1. Hand counted
2. Paper ballots
3. Records preserved
4. Absolutely nothing posted until a second count is complete.

Do I have to do ALL of this for you?

Well, there are paper records that were hand counted on site and put into envelopes so they're preserved. So that's not the problem.

Amy Klobuchar is astonishingly bad at jokes. She needs to stop attempting them.

Re: Democratic Challengers 8: Candidates Can Only Work for A Vegan Farm Market

The party says that 25% have reported. Then release that farking 25%.
