Nevada’s Democratic Party has settled on a system for caucus results that uses iPads, Google web forms and phone hotlines

WASHINGTON—Nevada’s Democratic Party will use iPads, Google web forms and telephone hotlines to report results in next week’s caucuses, a process devised in the 10 days since the party ditched an app similar to the one that failed in Iowa.

The state party said Thursday that the new system, which will have paper backups, has undergone some security testing, that volunteers are being trained and that more testing and training are planned ahead of the Feb. 22 caucuses.

Can Democrats count? Inquiring minds want to know.

Can we just do away with caucus?

LMAO. What could go wrong with that? Bwahahahahahahaha. Never knew a smart dem.

Yes you can trust Google not to have any political agenda.

What could go wrong? Haha

'Google web forms' lol Sounds like such a great idea!

What Could go wrong

Wait what Google web forms

Send Elizabeth Warren money and vote for her she is worth it.

Just keep paper ballots

What is wrong with paper and pencil?

LMAO. Keep trying until they find what works for them? Sounds like the impeachment dems. All losers.

Sanders is emerging as the anti-American candidate

Paper ballots by November please

I'm sure the folks at Google have no preference in elections.

Corrupt Dems.

Is the Warren highlight pic supposed to shave a few more progressive votes off Bernie?

What could go wrong.

Adding anything from Google into the mix automatically qualifies it as suspect.

will there be a “surprise” resurgence of Mayor Pete..his rise is so “amazing” 🙄 spare us.

Another Iowa...

It’s almost as if they are asking for it

😏

Current odds of an 'Iowa' debacle: 6 to 5

These clowns are about to it again lol

Nevada Democrats 'working around the clock' after turbulent start to caucus season in IowaIn wake of Iowa's botched caucuses, Nevada Democrats are working around the clock to implement last-minute adjustments to the voting process in the hopes of avoiding another embarrassing stumble. just use pen and paper, then count each paper by hand. Cause it's their first time? Why does the Democratic party make it so difficult? They need to end caucuses & stick to primaries. Then, in primaries, the states that don't allow Independent voters should now allow them to vote in the primaries as well.

Democrats look ahead to more diverse states of Nevada and South Carolina'You have Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren essentially fighting for their lives against the Bernie Sanders machine and a Mayor Pete machine.' — The Nevada Independent's Jon Ralston previews the Democratic primary going into Nevada following New Hampshire I think Biden may fare well in big states with minority votes. You can't base the election on two rural white states. They don't have many delegates. But CA, NY, FL, MI, IL. PA, OH. TX. Those are big scores. Where Bernie polls very well and Pete has virtually no support among POC. BernieBeatsTrump Bernie2020 2 small white states have chosen the nominee for the rest of America there is no point in having anyone else vote, just give it to Bernie Sanders already, his bigoted internet cult have won this just like Trump's cult. America wants bigotry in both parties, just let it happen.
