A hot mic moment appeared to capture an NBC News panelist trashing the Iowa caucuses Monday evening after technical issues forced a massive delay in results.

An issue with the phone application used to report results caused the delay, according to multiple reports. As of Tuesday morning, the results were still not in.

“Oh my god, what an f-ing disaster,” someone appearing to be an NBC panelist could be heard in the background during the live segment Monday as the issue unfolded.

VIDEO AT LINK.....................

NBC News did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller.

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) disputed reports that the application was to blame, saying in a statement Monday there were “inconsistencies in the reporting of three sets of results.”

“In addition to the tech systems being used to tabulate results we are also using photos of results and a paper trail to validate that all results match and ensure that we have confidence and accuracy in the numbers we report. This is simply a reporting issue,” the DNC said in a statement.

Former Vice President Joe Biden appeared to disagree with the DNC’s claim, writing in a letter that both the application and the backup system failed.

Off mic they ACTUALLY ADMIT HOW INCOMPETENT THE SUBVERSIVE SOCIALIST/DEMONRATS ARE....and we want them to lead the country???...Like letting USMB COMMIES run everything!!!....ROTFLMFAO
 
Trump is going to piggyback off of this and win votes from more than just Bernie supporters now. He can rightfully say "I've been telling you it's not on the level, now you are experiencing it yourself. Vote for me, the only true fighter who will take it to the establishment!"

They are going to use this app again in NV. Why? They had 3 years to get it right and this happens? Go look at the hashtags on twitter. Whether right or not, Dem voters are suspicious. They certainly should demand and receive answers by now.
 
The 2020 Democrat Party Iowa Caucuses brought to you by the political party:

....that thinks it can control the Earth's Climate
....wants complete control of the U.S. Healthcare System

Any Questions?

:cool:
 
Something fishy is going on....
An application for the local election officials to input their precinct data is sooo simple it almost can't fail.

This is all it has to do:

Make a connection to the server.
Allow the official to login
Allow the official to enter the data - just a handful of numbers
Maybe allow the official to view the current results
Log them off
Close the connection

all of the above must be encrypted (almost everything on the internet gets encrypted.)

1700 simultaneous connections to a server isn't a lot given the tiny amount of data being transmitted.

They should have done a couple of load tests ahead of time just to be sure. (i.e. have all the election officials log in at the same time and input bogus data.)

I'd like to say that the server may have been hacked - but the server should have been hardened, so that's no excuse.

It's either a seriously incompetent company that created this app

or it's a competent company that's owned and run by Republicans

Or somebody at the DNC didn't like the results they were seeing!
 
I'd like to hear a statement from the company that was contracted to create & run this application!

Trump says 'you have no choice but to vote for me' at New Hampshire rally
President Trump said at a campaign rally on Thursday Americans "have no choice" but to vote for him, warning that "everything" would be "down the tubes" if he does not win reelection in 2020.

Bloomberg and his VP Hillary have offered to step in and "make things right"

The wheels are off the Dem clown wagon.
