Hitting some Chans and other boards, the DNC is up to its usual dirty tricks because Bernie is the clear winner in Iowa. The DNC is trying to reduce the degree of his win, or, somehow, produce a "different winner."
A "technical difficulty" within the DNC is being blamed for delays. An App crash. Ah, the old App Crash ploy. That can only mean Hillary is in town with her hammer in hand. The fix is in against Bernie.
The Washington Examiner: Biden in fourth place.
It's clear the DNC doesn't want Bernie and will do everything possible to pull the rug out from under him - again. With the Buttigieg complaint of his name not listed, maybe the DNC doesn't want him either?A highly respected Iowa poll that was canceled from being released amid integrity issues had Joe Biden in fourth place, which could have drastically altered the news cycle and voter considerations in the days before Monday's Democratic caucuses.
According to leaked results verified by FiveThirtyEight, the final Des Moines Register/CNN/Mediacom poll of likely Democratic caucus-goers before Monday's first-in-the-nation caucuses had Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders leading with 22%, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren in second at 18%, former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg with 16%, and the former vice president in fourth with 13%.
The poll, often called the "gold standard" measure of Iowa, was scheduled to be released Sunday, but after an Iowa City man contacted for the poll reportedly complained that Buttigieg was not listed as an option when asked about his preferred candidate, officials did not release the results out of an abundance of caution.
"Today, a respondent raised an issue with the way the survey was administered, which could have compromised the results of the poll. It appears a candidate’s name was omitted in at least one interview in which the respondent was asked to name their preferred candidate," Des Moines Register executive editor Carol Hunter said in a statement Saturday. "While this appears to be isolated to one surveyor, we cannot confirm that with certainty. Therefore, the partners made the difficult decision to not to move forward with releasing the Iowa Poll."
Accusations of irregularities by the second and third-place candidates will hit the media immediately. Claims of something being "unfair" will echo all night and into the morning. Count on it.
The truth is...it's Russia. Ssshhhhhhhhh. Don't tell anyone.
