Anxiety is rising over the possibility of another tech-induced meltdown at the Nevada Democratic caucuses on Saturday.
In interviews, three caucus volunteers described serious concerns about rushed preparations for the Feb. 22 election, including insufficient training for a newly-adopted electronic vote-tally system and confusing instructions on how to administer the caucuses. There are also unanswered questions about the security of Internet connections at some 2,000 precinct sites that will transmit results to a central “war room” set up by the Nevada Democratic Party.

Democrats are too stupid to use technology, they can barely manage a paper ballot.

It's almost as if Democrats had some kind of reverse Midas touch.

And the dems hits keep on coming. At a time when there are serious questions about the dem ability to run the Country because of lousy performance under BO and MAGA performance under Trump, the dems are practicing the fine art of the face plant. Note that Nevada, like Iowa, is also a caucus of which each party is in control of its own caucus. The Republicans had no problems in Iowa. Will that be true in Nevada? That would paint a graphic picture of the election dynamic; happy, resurgent, successful Republicans vs. dour, incompetent, failed dems. They could put an image of a "successful" dem on a milk carton with a "Have you seen this person?" tagline.
I have a background in tech development and the process described in Nevada sounds like a classic disaster. They are about to dump iPads on tech wary seniors who man the caucus/voting sites. They haven't even told them except by accident. They are deciding on the solution and implementation at the last minute and claiming all will be well. Doesn't that sound like the BOCare government website that crashed and burned and took 6 months or so before it stopped face planting? Over 6 years and the dems have learned nothing about how to deal with tech. That also is a bad reminder that they are painfully slow to learn about running government as well. BO rolled out failed 60s policy which ... failed. His arrogance in his personal aura, "You didn't have ME back then.", was front and center just like the dem arrogance causing the tech failure in Iowa and, it seems, in Nevada.
Can we just stamp the foreheads of dems with the big L (LOSER) and have done with it?

By now everyone should know that Mayor Cheatin Pete and his campaign manager's wife are behind this wonderful app. He has invested money in this company so you might suspect there is a vested interest in its failure to count the vote correctly and have cheatin Pete declare himself victor yet again but NOOOOOO nothing to see here folks move along. Get ready for Mayor P to declare victory as soon as the first big glitch occurs.
The Congress needs to mandate that all federal elections are conducted with paper ballots and fill in the circle ballots. No glitches, no hacks, and a paper trail to boot, Also cheaper and more reliable so you don't have to worry about the Russians or the Ukraines either.

As we all know, whatever problem arises with this newest Rat sham, it was Trumps fault.

Democrats are so busy, trying to game the voting to get the candidate the leadership wants, regardless of what their constituents want.
'Democrat' is like Orwell's reversed definitions: what that really means is 'Autocrat'.

This is what the Democrats will try to do to the Nov. election, which they will lose, but they will try to create so much chaos and havoc that they will pretend they didn't lose, and a do over should be had. Democrats are a criminal organization. Please arrest them!

I think the malfunction is on purpose so the party can control who wins. They are demRats after all. Cheating is their way of life.

These election night disasters are just dry runs for November when Trump wins and Democrats want to claim election fraud or errors. JUST WAIT AND SEE!

It's not a bug, it's a FEATURE. It let's the Thugs In Charge make the results whatever they want them to be.
Cover up your corruption and fraud with "OOPS, we had a problem with our app. Sorry, but we'll get it sorted out".
Planned.
