I think the decent showing by both Buttigieg and Klobuchar is a good sign for Bloomberg. There are clearly dems who are hankering for a more centrist candidate. (That last sentence crafted as an homage to Iowa.

)

BTW, I read that part of the issue with "the app" is they chose to release it via a beta release app, not the more standard apple store and android store route. It's unclear why that happened, other than perhaps they didn't have time to get it througn the longer vetting process for the standard outlets.

Here's NPR's summary of the problems. No conspiracy. Just incompetence. I win!

Who cares if it takes a few extra days. As long as it's accurate and we have a paper trail. Better the country is alerted to these kinds of problems now, while changes can still be made before Nov.

Are you referring to the fact that the "Democratic Establishment" had selected Mrs. Clinton as their candidate before the campaign even started and did everything they could to cut every other candidate off at the knees?

I agree... some actions in there could probably be considered "rigging".

But I think it is quite disingenuous to pounce on what is probably just a glitch of modern technology and brand it as "rigging" with zero evidence to back that up.

I expect nothing less from Brad Parscale and I expect a whole heck of a lot more of this carp for the next nine months.

Well, your first paragraph was understatement.
