Something smells in the Democratic Party

6. Fundamentally, there is no way to verify anything since there were no paper ballots.

Just head-counting of thousands of moving heads.

And the counts mean very little, because a delegate in one precinct could represent 10 voters, and a delegate in another precinct could represent 50. One-person-one-vote doesn't exist in caucuses. Some voters matter a lot more than others.

The time to thrash out changes to the party caucus rules was BEFORE the caucuses. Where were the Bernie people then?

I think they got cocky because Obama did so well in the caucuses, and they thought they'd get Obama's turnout. They didn't, and Hillary had strength all over the state -- not just in a few college towns, like Bernie.

I hate our state caucuses and I predicted that everyone here would soon hate them too, before this was over. There's nothing that can be done about Iowa. People should take this energy and use it to push all states that have caucuses to switch to primaries.
