Guys I know this is a discussion forum, but we literally know nothing. It's impossible to make any sort of judgement about how any of this will play because nothing like this has ever happened.
The only thing I feel confident in is that Iowa is going to have a hard time going first next time.

Media will move on or talk about the Chaos so much that no one will trust the results much (save supporters of the winner I'm sure...). New Hampshire is a week away so eyes will be on that.
damn the IA Democratic Party for this monumental fuck up. I wanted the whole country to see Biden get his ass handed to him.

But I don't think it will help him in the end. People will watch this speech (which, again, is happening after midnight on the East Coast) through the filter of the media. And the media will be incredulous that he claimed victory.
agreed.

agreed.
So the responses could be summed up as:
Klob: we're still in this thing!
Sanders: The millionaires and the billionaires...
Warren: Join us!
Pete: we won!?
Booker: we got one!
Yang: 'sup.
Biden: Folks, you'll be hearing from my lawyer.
Not bad considering no one was voted off the island tonight. Pete's right. He's one step closer to being President. They all are. Also, most of them are one step closer to not being the President, though they don't know it yet.

Pete's speech was actually totally fine.
And I won't lie:
Seeing an openly gay man standing on stage with his equally gay husband who just became the first openly gay person to (at the very least) win a delegate in a Presidential nominating contest is kind of a big deal. It's something 2004 me, knocking on doors for a candidate who didn't think I had the right to get married never would have thought possible less than 20 years later.

I can't celebrate Pete's win knowing that he'd probably be a Brexiteer Tory if he were British.
lol the only thing that this is disastrous for is the IDP, every campaign gets a mulligan.
Warren should livestream her post-event photo-ops a la giant bomb e3 intermissions. It's a great selling point.
Even if we get the Iowa results, I wonder if this will essentially nullify them in the eyes of primary voters due to the fuckery.
I actually think this only helps Biden, everyone else gets no "story" out of this to change from his "front runner" status, and a TON of candidates put everything they had into this to start a momentum swing...
Curious what Bloomberg's camp thinks of this at this hour, but don't think it helps him either since Biden isn't in 5th place result like they may have been hoping for.
Since IDP has paper backups, we'll get the results by the morning, so not everything's a disaster.
Chris Matthews: "Democracy is our special thing" like we're the only country that does democracy and that we do it best.
Fucking idiot.
Fucking idiot.
You can't make this up....
They were releasing the APK to people less than 24 hours ago, and they were doing it possibly via email. But when you try to install the APK it gives you the warning that it could harm your device (the standard thing for anything not downloaded from the store obviously.) So people literally were too scared to install it.
This is hilarious.

Unless CNN story is true that multiple precints messed up the 2nd round. If true then it would invalidate the whole caucus in some form or fashion.
Chris Matthews, and a not insignificant amount of the news media, are super high on American exceptionalism.
Also with not much to talk about the pundits are still sneaking in Bloomberg.
Bloomberg wasn't even at Iowa and he still came out ok.

Month? I give it a week.
I doubt it makes it to next week. NH will have a normal primary and that'll be it.
