Iowa Dem Party Says Delay Due To 'Reporting Issue'; County Chairs Blame Malfunctions

[Dulcinea]

The Iowa caucuses aren't over yet. A delay in the results meant the state Democratic Party did not call the race Monday night as expected, leaving the candidates and their supporters in limbo.

In a brief statement he read to reporters over the phone shortly after 2 a.m. ET, Iowa Democratic Party Chair Troy Price said, "At this point the [Iowa Democratic Party] is manually verifying all precinct results. We expect to have numbers to report later today."

"We are validating every piece of data we have against our paper trail," Price said. "That system is taking longer than expected but it's in place to ensure we are eventually able to report results with full confidence."
