I think it’s better to move on now. Tomorrow results will be on the up and up and it looks like the two winners from Iowa will be the top two in New Hampshire. Time for Nevada.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

were put in place to insure viability of the Iowa Caucus System by the Dems. If Price thought the Rethugs were not going to mess with his operation,well,then he needs to be banded from Politics for ever.

However, the Republican voters could register as democrats, vote for the worst candidate in the primaries and be against the candidate that has the best chance of winning against Trump or other Republican politicians. (Think: The all out war being waged for months and months against BIDEN. They must consider him as having the best chance of defeating trump)

With all the corruption that they have rained down on the voting process across America, I can't see where anything we do will matter.
Truly.

Their "fixing" of the results of the upcoming election are already completed.............

Voting takes place over 4 weekends, states and dates are rotated each year, giving no state more weight than others. All the voting and counting is over in one month.
