Mensen
wat een zootje weer die democratische voorverkiezingen tot het presidentschap, het lijkt of we
weer terug zijn in 2016 toen Hillary Clinton met haar snerige spel geheel misdadig de voorverkiezingen
heeft gestolen van Bernie Sanders en de schuld voor het uitkomen van
deze misdaad (nogmaals: door haar begaan), aangreep om de Russen te beschuldigen van het hacken van o.a. haar mails, waardoor e.e.a. op straat kwam te liggen...... (in werkelijkheid was het een klokkenluider, een gefrustreerd lid van haar campagneteam, boos over haar smerige machinaties om Sanders uit te schakelen*)
Ook nu
lijkt het er sterkt op dat men koste wat kost wil voorkomen dat
Sanders de voorverkiezingen zal winnen en dat zou heel goed mogelijk
zijn daar men gisteren al claimde dat hij de voorverkiezingen in Iowa zou
hebben gewonnen........ Vandaag wordt gezegd dat de minder bekende kandidaat Pete Buttigieg voor zou liggen op Sanders, echter wat kan je na deze rampzalig verlopen voorverkiezing nog geloven???
'Origineel hè', Buttigieg die een 'selfie neemt.....'
Niet
vreemd ook dat aanhangers van Sanders stellen dat ook deze
verkiezingen gemanipuleerd worden door de neoliberale welgestelde top van de
partij....... Mocht dat dreigen uit te komen, zal men andermaal de
Russen beschuldigen van inmenging, ook al had Rusland er 4 jaar
geleden en ook nu weer juist belang bij dat Sanders zou winnen, immers
dan is het echt afgelopen met oorlogsvoering overzee. Hoewel? Men
weet bij de CIA, FBI en NSA wel hoe dissidenten aan te pakken.......
Nog even over Trumps State of the Union, waarmee hij vooral zichzelf veren in de vieze reet stak, Trump stelt dat het prima gaat met de economie van de VS, echter hij vertelt wijselijk genoeg maar niet dat een enorm aantal boeren failliet is gegaan door zijn handelsoorlog, een oorlog die tevens veel middenstanders een faillissement bracht, winkeliers van wie de producten fiks in prijs zijn gestegen door de handelsbeperkingen op Chinese producten..... Voorts zou het aantal banen zijn gegroeid, dat was al gaande onder Obama, terwijl het aantal werkenden dat niet rond kan komen, onder Trump fiks is toegenomen, daarnaast worden een groot aantal mensen niet meer meegerekend als werkloos (een truc die men hier overigens ook toepast).... Daarnaast hebben velen door die handesloorlog juist hun baan verloren...... Trump stelde verder dat de armoede flink is afgenomen, waar de gebruikers van het aantal voedselbonnen is gegroeid, als reactie daarop heeft Trump flink gesneden in de fondsen voor voedselhulp, hetzelfde doet zijn administratie voor medische hulp, ofwel er wordt bezuinigd op gezondheidskosten, dit nog naast de pogingen van Trump om Medicare en dergelijke programma's onderuit te halen..... Volgens Trump heeft de wereld 'respect voor' de militiare macht van de VS, waar hij de woorden 'respect voor' verwart met 'walgt van......'

Chaos In Iowa: Thousands Of Furious Supporters Claim Iowa Caucus "Rigged" Against Bernie

Update (0945ET): We're
not huge fans of Nate Silver, but the 538 data guru delivered a
memorable rant about how the Dems found themselves in this situation.
- It's damn hard to calculate 15% of a number. That's the threshold for determining if a candidate won any delegates.
- It's so hard to calculate 15% that the Democrats needed to develop an app to do the calculation.
- The app was too hard to use. And bear in mind, one does have to punch in numbers correctly.
- It's hard to punch in the numbers correctly when the results are scattered all over the room.
- Of course there is another key issue. People have to know how to use a phone.
- Using a phone requires
a mobile app and a backup telephone system. Now that might sound
easy, but I can tell you from the results, that it isn't.

Update (0915ET): The official results from last night's Iowa caucus are now 12 hours late. Offering a terse update, the Iowa Democratic organization said Tuesday morning that their new app-based reporting system, which was never tested before caucus-day, had a "coding issue" but that the results would still be reliable.
The problem, they explained, was that the smartphone app only reported partial data. Somehow, the Dems managed to completely botch an app that was only ever meant to be used by 1,700 people helping to oversee the caucus results.
Of course, this wasn't the only 'technical glitch' to impact the caucus: Over the weekend, the Des Moines Register/CNN/Mediacom poll that was set to be released Saturday was instead scrapped because of complaints from the Buttigieg campaign about its methodology.
Sources said the issue was attributed to an issue with the 'font size', as one of the pollsters enlarged the text, bumping Buttigieg's name off the list of options.
An app fails. A poll caller changes the font size on a monitor. And the Des Moines Register and Iowa Democratic Party implode.
Sources also said that poll
would've confirmed earlier polls showing Bernie Sanders widening his
lead. Once again, Buttigieg (who was the first to declare victory
last night, effectively making him the 'winner' by default) was
behind this snafu.
A conference call with the various campaigns has been scheduled for 11 AM local time.
Below are excerpts from a statement to the press from the IDP**, courtesy of the Hill.
"Precinct level results are still being reported to the IDP. While our plan is to release results as soon as possible today, our ultimate goal is to ensure that the integrity and accuracy of the process continues to be upheld," the party said in a statement.
"As part of our investigation, we determined with certainty that the underlying data collected via the app was sound."
"While the app was recording data accurately, it was reporting out only partial data. We have determined that this was due to a coding issue in the reporting system. This issue was identified and fixed. The application’s reporting issue did not impact the ability of precinct chairs to report data accurately."
"Because of the required paper documentation, we have been able to verify that the data recorded in the app and used to calculate State Delegate Equivalents is valid and accurate."
"We are reading confirmed reports of Shadow’s work with the Iowa Democratic Party on Twitter and we, like everyone else, are eagerly awaiting more information from the Iowa Democratic Party about what happened," spokesman Kyle Tharp said.
Don’t get roped into Iowa conspiracy theories. It was human error. When Trump spouts this stuff, remember, he’s doing it to get you to lose confidence, give up & not vote. Don’t let him keep you from voting. The one way to be sure your vote won’t count is if you don’t cast it. https://twitter.com/susan_hennessey/status/1224676441465462784 …
Iowa Democrats are now saying the
coding issue has been 'fixed'.
Great: At least it'll be ready for 2024. The Iowa Dems said they should have the results 'some time' Tuesday.
Betting odds are currently favoring a release right in the middle of President Trump's State of the Union.

Update (0845ET): As it turns out, tech snafus and 'human error' weren't solely to blame for last night's caucus catastrophe. A columnist for the Iowa Gazette reported that new rules introduced for this year's caucus, plus a lack of clarity on the rules of the esoteric ritual apparently prompted some local precinct supervisors to make illegal decisions about supporters of 'non-viable' candidates joining together.
After the Warren campaign spent hours instructing its precinct captains in the arcane rules of the caucus, some wondered whether nonpartisan volunteers in charge of the process had received adequate training.
"Are you going to report how this was a (beep) show?" asked Megan Lange, a Warren supporter. "If this is going on in other caucuses, how reliable is it?"
"We had to do two hours of training so we knew how it was supposed to work," said Diane Bean, another Warren backer, who wondered whether volunteers were trained well enough.
"This is like a badly organized middle school assembly," Harris said. "As a young voter, this is very disappointing."The circumstances in Mario will likely lead to Warren challenging the results.
Volunteers messed up. And their late efforts to pull Marion 5 out of the dumpster fire might have fared better if more people had waited to go from being caucusgoers to home-goers. By the time the problem was identified, too few Democrats remained in the gym for a replay call.
"We regret the confusion," said Barb Wild, a caucus volunteer. She encouraged Warren supporters to document the problems so lessons can be learned. A complaint is likely.The takeaway: Even once they've finished counting the votes, millions of Americans will likely refuse to recognize this as a legitimate reflection of the 'will of the people'

Update (0725ET): Tuesday morning has arrived...and still no results.
Here's your 7 a.m. Iowa results update: Still nothing.
This live results page will be very cool when results start to come in, though: https://wapo.st/3ba2l5q
At this point, anything could happen, including...
After the party badly botched the rollout of the results of last night's Iowa Caucus following "quality control issues" involving the transmission of data from caucus sites to the main reporting headquarters, millions are accusing the Democratic Party of once again trying to rig the nominating contest to favor establishment candidates while undermining the insurgent campaign of 'Democratic Socialist' Bernie Sanders.
This technical glitch has led to one of the most electoral catastrophes in recent memory: Roughly 8 hours after results were expected, there's still nothing, and the entire process has been plunged into chaos. The issue erupted after the Iowa Democratic Party announced late Tuesday that it had found 'inconsistencies' in its electronic data, prompting them to audit it against the paper trail, according to NBC News.
Party chair Troy Price said the party is "validating every piece of data we have against our paper trail. That system is taking longer than expected, but it's in place to ensure we are eventually able to report results with full confidence."
The state Democratic party's communications director, Mandy McClure, said on Monday night that there were "inconsistencies" in the reporting of three sets of results. "In addition to the tech systems being used to tabulate results, we are also using photos of results and a paper trail to validate that all results match and ensure that we have confidence and accuracy in the numbers we report," McClure said.
This is simply a reporting issue. The app did not go down, and this is not a hack or an intrusion. The underlying data and paper trail is sound and will simply take time to further report the results," McClure added.Needless to say, polls released in recent weeks showed Bernie Sanders surging ahead, cementing him as the front-runner heading into the race. And then this glitch happens, allowing Pete Buttigieg, Amy Klobuchar and Joe Biden to steal the caucus-evening spotlight with the help of their cronies in the media.
After watching Democrats rig the 2016 primary in favor of Hillary Clinton, thousands have taken to twitter to express their frustration. If the caucus was an unmitigated disaster (made even more hilarious by the fact that all of the candidates invested months of their time and hundreds of millions of dollars trying to clinch the all-important first nominating contest), it was also a wellspring for political humor.
The main takeaway: Is it merely a coincidence that this epic confusion emerged after Bernie's surge in the polls?

They’re absolutely fucking with the votes right now lol. Like 100%.
the first time someone explained to me how caucuses work i thought it was joke and i have thought that every subsequent time someone has explained it
Let me get this straight:
1. @CNN aired ALL of Klobuchar’s speech.
2. Aired ALL of Biden’s speech DURING Warren’s.
2. Briefly cut to Warren.
3. Then cut back to the panel while she was STILL SPEAKING.
Are you kidding me?!?! #IowaCaucuses
As
millions wonder 'what the hell happened?', it appears a reporter with
the New York Times has already sussed it out. And if her report is
accurate, then instead of blaming the caucus disaster on 'human
error', they should try 'rank stupidity'
