How the Iowa caucuses came âcrashing down,â under the watchful eye of the DNC
(Feb. 16, 2020)
The DNC ordered and paid for a security audit of the software, which was completed by NCC Group, a Britain-based cybersecurity firm. Out of the review, which also involved threat assessment conducted with the national party as well as officials in Iowa and Nevada, came directions to guard the name of the vendor, and to take the software live as late as possible to prevent it from getting into the hands of hackers, according to multiple people who participated or had knowledge of the exercises.

(Dec. 16, 2020)
After the caucus, the IDP hired a pair of Democratic lawyers: Nick Klinefeldt, who was a federal attorney appointed by President Barack Obama, and former Iowa Attorney General Bonnie Campbell. They were tasked with identifying and determining the cause of problems that occurred during the 2020 Iowa Caucuses, with the results of their investigation being released to the public on Saturday morning.

Investigator: DNC Was âDirectly Involvedâ in Iowa Caucus App Development, Countering DNC Denial
(22.12.2020)
The DNCâs meddling, which included a last-minute demand that developers of the Shadow app create a special software that would allow the DNC real-time access to the raw numbers before they went public, didnât sit well with Zogby.
âWhy would [the DNC] need to see that?â Zogby said about the DNCâs insistence on access to the raw caucus results before they went public. âWhy wouldnât you trust the state party to make the determination?â
In the transcript from the closed-session meeting held by the state party, members suggested that the DNCâs goal was to strip Iowa of its prestigious first-in-the-nation status.

‚We don‘t have time to correct every error‘: Iowa Democrats vote 26-14 to certify caucus results
(29.02.2020)
But the certification wasn‘t unanimous. Several members of the Iowa Democratic Party‘s state central committee, which acts as a governing board, argued that too many questions remain about the accuracy of the results.

Iowa Democrats to recount 23 caucus precincts in ongoing Bernie Sanders-Pete Buttigieg battle
The state party‘s recanvass/recount committee expects to begin the process on Tuesday and for it to last two days, the party‘s news release said.
Bernie Sandersâ campaign to request recount of Iowa caucuses
Bernie Sandersâ presidential campaign plans to ask for a partial recount of the Iowa caucus results after the state Democratic Party released results of its recanvass late Tuesday that show Sanders and Pete Buttigieg in an effective tie.
Sanders campaign senior adviser Jeff Weaver told The Associated Press in an interview Tuesday that the campaign has had a representative in contact with the Iowa Democratic Party throughout the recanvass process.
If these results stand Buttigieg would still get 14 national delegates (the ones that actually matter) to Bernieâs 12. Totally democratic system we have!
Bernie is still fighting that decision
Buttigieg lead in Iowa appears to fall to a mere 0.08 SDEs after recanvass Buttigieg 563.207 Sanders 563.127
Buttigieg, Sanders separated by thousandths of a point after Iowa recanvass
Buttigieg now leads Sanders by .08 state delegate equivalents, according to results posted by the state party â 26.186 percent for Buttigieg to 26.182 percent for Sanders. The initial results were marred by apparent reporting or mathematical errors.

Iowa Democratic Party Begins Recanvass of Caucus Precincts
The party is expected to finish the recanvass by Wednesday. After that, candidates can request a recount.
We‘re about to be two weeks away from the Iowa caucuses, & the IDP has still not released real results from likely 2 precincts; & only one of them is on the recanvass list, which makes it an open question whether some voters in Des Moines Co. will ever have their votes included.
(Official reason the Des Moines precinct not on list is that no campaign put it on theirs; based on what co-chair of Des Moines Co Dems told @CoatsandLinen
, real results wouldn‘t change Sanders/Buttigieg‘s gap. But issue is also IDP putting burden of corrections on campaigns.)
