misinformation. It's right there in the article you posted...

If I were to vote in a presidential

LOL. DanTex Feb 2020 #1
As per the AP last night... lapucelle Feb 2020 #19
So Robby Mook's app doesn't work, it distracts from Bernie's victory, and they're going to DanTex Feb 2020 #20
The question was "Why were the caucus rules and procedures changed"? lapucelle Feb 2020 #21
This is the type of thing that often happens when people who have no idea what they're doing lapucelle Feb 2020 #23
Robby Mook, Hillary's 2016 campaign manager, was in charge of the app. DanTex Feb 2020 #26
The BS faction insisted on the rule changes, lapucelle Feb 2020 #31
You're right, the story originated in the DMR, but was misreported elsewhere. DanTex Feb 2020 #41
So Robby Mook wasn't in charge of the app and had nothing to do with building the app, lapucelle Feb 2020 #48
And your claim that "it was Robby Mook's app" DID NOT originate in The Des Moines Register lapucelle Feb 2020 #68
It's not beyond me Dan. You see what this is ALL about... stoppin Bernie!! Not gonna work tho... InAbLuEsTaTe Feb 2020 #74
Stop spreading misinformation. TwilightZone Feb 2020 #75
Robby Mook had no role in the app DesertRat Feb 2020 #33
You are correct. Mook consulted with the IDP about the process, but didn't build the app. DanTex Feb 2020 #40
Mook's only role was helping with a video to alert campaigns to the warning signs of hacking & -Steph- Feb 2020 #60

MSNBC now reporting that this increased transparency brought *preexisting problems* to light. JudyM Feb 2020 #44
And contributed to creating new problems of epic proportions. N/T lapucelle Feb 2020 #50
Lol, because transparency is so unimportant. JudyM Feb 2020 #52
No public reporting of results because of conflicting tallies is about as opaque as it can get. lapucelle Feb 2020 #54

The crazy thing is, some people blame Bernie at any whiff of opportunity. JudyM Feb 2020 #28
See post 23... it was Hillary's campaign manager's responsibility. Ludicrous Sanders shade. JudyM Feb 2020 #30
Wrong DesertRat Feb 2020 #34
Ok, retracted. But it's directly the fault of the Iowa Dem party for, at a minimum, not having JudyM Feb 2020 #36
My mistake. Mook didn't build the app, but according to DMR, was consulted by the party for testing. DanTex Feb 2020 #43
