AYFKM? Went to bed at about 7pm Iowa time

thinking "no sense waiting up; they'll have the results when I get up."

What an absolute fiasco. If this doesn't end the caucus system (and hopefully Iowa's magical special snowflake status) I don't think anything will. "We can get the results accurately and quickly" is literally one of their selling points.

And are they seriously running it on apps on the precinct chairs' phones? You gotta be kidding me.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Homeland security said they never vetted the app.
The decision to use it was made only 2 months ago.
Just wait till the election when states will be using flaky systems with no paper trail.
Tailor made for Trump to declare cheating
G and victory.

I fell asleep at 6:30pm EST. I just woke up at 1:30AM. I spent 30 minutes trying to catch up, being very confused.

Then by 2am I realized that being confused is actually being caught up.
