    What happened in Iowa? In one sentence? Voting didn't work as planned?

    For those scoring at home,  here's how it stands.  Looks to be a tight one. 


    Hmmmmmmmm. Deceptively edited out Yang at 100%....

    LOL, Yang for the win!
    Yang ain’t doing well. And apparently at the place a friend is at they won’t go to another candidate. So dumb. Bernie-esque douchebagery
    Who else isn’t viable at the location?  
    Sorry, didn’t see this before I slept. 

    This was in eastern Iowa. Biden did terrible and wasn’t viable. Bernie didn’t make cut but only needed a couple of people and I believe they got them to be viable. Warren and Pete did the best and Amy was 3rd. At 1 location.

    the other had a strong Bernie presence. Then Pete and Warren.

    They developed a new reporting app that didn't work. Chaos ensues.

    THE LAST THING SAID HERE.

    COME ON PEOPLE. If that doesn't bring you over - than are you really human?

    Honestly I have no idea what the huge deal is. Reporting happened, some issues, they are looking back at the hard votes and data to ensure they get it right. Just cause you don’t get the info instantaneously doesn’t mean it’s bad.

    Doesn't bring me over. It's enough for you to have Sanders say what he's not, who he is, and articulate no plan on how to get there. It's really not that complicated: if you can share a compelling reason why a person should feel that Bernie Sanders' ideas, based on Bernie Sanders' rhetoric, vision, and approaches, will have a shot in hell at getting an idea formed into a law in this polarized environment, where every tiptoe towards the left is weaponized by Republicans (and even some Democrats) in an instance, and where all Republican lawmakers are immediately united in opposing progress like that, then I would consider supporting Bernie Sanders. 

    Also, I don't appreciate you calling anyone on here subhuman for not supporting your candidate. That's pretty ish of you.

    It was a very apparent joke. His last thing said is namedropping A Nightmare on Elm Street. I do understand that would not bring you over. I also do understand no one in here being brought over by a candidate mentioning a horror movie from the 80s. There lies the joke.

    I did not anticipate the risk of that flowing over anyones head. 

    You don't need to appreciate "calling anyone subhuman" because I did not - because it was an apparent joke -- The last thing said was namderopping a (fantastic) slasher movie from 1984. 

    But I am sorry, if you misinterpreted it.

    All votes are counted properly. Media everywhere. Paper trail. This will be accurate when reported and not reported till accurate. I know a Fox News fan wouldn’t understand that.

    I thought your last line was a joke, so I made one back. If not, apologies: back to the self-seriousness.

    Is there a GOP nickname repository/contest you could submit this one to? It's really clever.

    There was a clear winner in Iowa: Donald Trump.  In a country that exists in his image, the opposition is so out of sorts, divided, and disorganized, I wouldn’t be surprised if he wins every state this November.

    Couldn't agree more, unfortunately.  The appearance of incompetence, and / or corruption in the "Democratic" process is gonna stick. 😫

    What makes you think this? Because counting votes is taking longer? I’m just amazed at the media’s move here and those that seem to be following.
