Nevada Democrats look to avoid Iowa caucus mistakes

By Associated Press -February 22, 2020 7:00 AM

Party officials have taken measures to avoid chaos in Saturday's caucuses.

Nevada Democrats are hoping to avoid a repeat of the chaos that ensnared the Iowa caucuses, as voters gather across the Silver State on Saturday to make their presidential preferences known. Iowa's process cratered this month following a rushed effort by state Democrats to deploy a mobile app for caucus volunteers to report results. Democrats in Nevada were going to use the same app developer as Iowa did, but quickly sidelined those plans. They will still be relying to some extent on technology to assist in counting and reporting results, though, and like Iowa, they will have paper backups.

Questions and answers about Nevada's preparations:

has made sure there are safe guards in place so we would not repeat a Iowa nightmare.

After reading all these doom and gloom statements coming from folks who just do not have a friggin clue as to the operation of the Nevada Dem Party. A redundant Paper ballot system is in place. And as for those I-Pads,well,we have been using that system since 2016. Only difference is the upgrade to a newer and more user friendly Pad than the old clunkers.
