These are everyday people trying to check/double check tallies. Small precincts are one thing, but the larger areas and the larger caucuses get really complicated and that would be even more so with Iowa's more complicated system

It is not like a primary election.

I'm just going to say that those who are trying to imply something nefarious going on should just STOP IT!

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