I think we have a new Basecamp. I think Iowa's Democratic Headquarters could have spent some of that fancy app money on paint for their rundown building.

Also, is the DNC just saying "fuck the other 25% of the votes" in Iowa? What a clown show.

Maybe they gave some Bernie votes to Patrick? I'm not sure what's going on with this one.

Now that you are all done jerking it to twitter conspiracy theories, let the adults speak:

Is anyone going to actual execute on a plan to increase black voter turnout or will people just continue to talk for the next 9 months about how black turnout needs to be increased and assume that is satisfactory action-taking

Obama will try to do that, but not until the horse has been picked.

I’m pretty sure that the trump era has proven to us that what happens in Feb 2020 won’t be remembered in March 2020, let alone November.

Edit - what I mean is that Iowa ceases to be an issue after the debate Friday night/hype for N.H. And Trump will say a bajillion things in the next few months that both reinforce & undermine the SOTU comments.

'trust the process'
After all of its struggles to release proper results from the Iowa Democratic caucuses Monday night, on Wednesday afternoon, the party released some mistaken results.

"There will be a minor correction to the last batch of results and we will be pushing an update momentarily," the Iowa Democratic Party said in a tweet, after it had released 85% of the long-awaited results.

Party officials did not say exactly what they would need to correct.

About 45 minutes after the tally reached 85%, the party tweeted that it had corrected the results and released some new ones. That brought the total number of precincts reporting to 86%.

I wonder who will still be here on Super Tuesday. I am guessing Biden (which could be his last stand if he does poorly in New Hampshire and Nevada), Bloomberg, Buttigieg, and Bernie seem like locks (the killer b’s?)

I am getting the hunch that unless Warren slays it somewhere she may be gone sadly. Klobuchar is probably not making it. Maybe some of the also rans since there’s no real reason to get out and they can still occasionally grab national headlines for things they say? This may be narrowing fast.

Iowa's not even in the headlines anymore. Did they finally figure out the final numbers?

97% of the votes have been counted. It’s close between Pete and Bernie.

The only Norwegian leader I can name is Ragnar Lodbrok meanwhile Anders is supplying stats for the Iowa Caucus.
