The DNC is "figuring out" the results of Iowa primary. Let the shitshow begin.

You'd think in the year 2020 there would be no circles to run in. I'm far too much a pessimist to think that inconsistencies don't equal improprieties. But I'm sure after they figure out a way to get Hillary's name off the results, they'll share their version of them with the rest of us.

Oh Dear God.
I thought that Putin would wait until after the convention so we at least had the illusion that the election was untainted.
It's never going to happen, but now is the time for all of those assholes to call on EVERY state to fully publicize it's voting process
1) Who is eligible to vote
2) What they need to do to register, and what is the registration deadline
3) What system are they using - electronic, paper or a combination of both?
4) What backups do they have in place in the event of a system failure?
And they need to be screaming this from the mother-fucking rooftops too. I don't give a shit who won last night right now. I want a full assurance (preferably from both parties, but I'll settle for one right now) that election security is and should be the number one issue on the minds of everyone, and we ALL need to get fully educated on the process.
But I'm totally pissing in the wind -all the BernieBros want to do is declare themselves the clear winners, and the man himself is already proclaiming "On to NH!"
And Mayor Pete's crowd is trying to fend off accusations that he's in bed with the app developers.
Not quite sure what the others are doing.
Doesn't matter, because since they're all too greedy and stupid to slow their roll and get some answers from Iowa, along with reassurances from other states that this shit show won't be repeated, Trump and crew have done their job.
If any of them had half a brain, they'd be asking the Republican Party of Iowa to showcase their caucus system - one would think it would be the same one that the Democrats use.

Of most concern is the low turnout, said to be on a par with 2016. WTF?

I don't expect the primaries to have a huge turnout. In the majority of states, there won't be a Republican one, which pretty much rules out 50% of the vote right there.
And primaries *always* have a lower turnout.
I suspect it's because the great unwashed public was never taught how the electoral process fully works, so they don't understand how important the primary actually is - that's what determines who shows up on your ballot in November. Don't like your choices come November? Well, if you blew off the primary in March, don't come bitching to me....
