I can’t imagine how corrupt the Nevada caucus is when you throw in the Vegas/union factor

Bernie is toast.

All those Obama employees that have gone to work for Google will ensure Bernie doesn't win.

Cenk and the Young Turks crew will go berserk over this. They already see conspiracies in everything against Bernie.

This is the same party that claims they want interference free elections from outsiders and then chooses extremely hack able platforms.

Party Executive Director Alana Mounce sent a memo explaining that the calculator will be loaded onto 2,000 iPads purchased by the Nevada State Democratic Party, with the iPads then distributed to precinct chairs.


What are they going to do with 2,000 ipads after the caucus ends?

If they are smart, they will donate them to some schools.

Mounce emphasized that the calculator will not need to be downloaded by precinct officials on to any devices


I don't know if it will work or not, but giving pre-loaded and locked tablets to chairs is 100,000 times a better idea than asking chairs to download an app to their smart phone.

Now... how will these ipads connect to the internet to submit the data?

quote:

When reporting voting data, the party will require a two-source verification process of reporting the data through a secure hotline to a trained operator, and then a second source verifying the data using either the paper results or the Google calculator.


So, 2000 people are going to have to call in their results, and then, the person on the other end verifies the call info against the app submission database?

That might take some time.

All things being considered, that they didn't have much time to come up with a new plan, this isn't bad.

So will Jimmy Dore.

If I'm the sheriff of Milwaukee County I'm reinforcing my riot squad before this summer.

It's coming.
