What went wrong with the caucus results An extremely bare-bones version of what happened is this: Iowans showed up at more than 1,600 caucus sites on Monday, [including some “satellite” locations outside official precincts](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgIShWP0T4aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wMi8wNi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9pb3dhLXNhdGVsbGl0ZS1jYXVjdXNlcy5odG1sP3RlPTEmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3Mgd2l0aCBsaXNhIGxlcmVyJmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjAwMjA4JmNhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTE1ODU1JnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MjExMDEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkNyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyMjAyMDAyMDhXA255dEIKADVWoz5eODodYFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). The actual caucusing went pretty normally. But when precinct officials tried to report their results to the state party, they ran into a slew of problems with a new app created for that purpose. The app fell apart, phone lines were jammed, math errors were made, and the party — which had to tabulate and reconcile not one but three sets of results — was overwhelmed.
