It does get messy and Primaries are the best way to go. Interesting idea about Iowa last night. Somewhat fimiliar with the Internet and Cable systems available in Iowa. Much like out State Minnesota,you have Band Width issues. There are areas that have only Dail up systems and even Copper Wire transmission instead of Fiber.

Fortunately Most of Las Vegas is now 5G but not all. And if this Phone app is 4G or higher. We too will have issues. Example is Verizon and Sprint Networks from our experience ,has several blind spots around the valley.

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