      Iowa party officials are holding a call with the campaigns. Troy Price tells them he'll put out about *50%* of results at 4 p.m. today. There are objections. He won't say when the rest are coming.

      If you release incomplete results you’ll launch a thousand conspiracy theories. You can do the final result or the prealignment results on their own for the same reason.

      No matter what pressure the state party is facing frim candidates and media, they caused this clusterfuck and now the only legitimate way out is through

      Thank god there is a paper backup. Counting takes time. This whole app contract issue stinks, but now we just have to wait for results like countries that hold responsible elections do.

      So fucking nuts to release partial results of any election but ESPECIALLY when the vote totals change from 1st to 3rd results (this is a feature not a bug) AND there's a proportional system nobody understands AND the dumb app SNAFU delayed the results.pic.twitter.com/uPaw3ZxOre

      And now, as was ENTIRELY predictable, you have even reasonable interlocutors on Twitter making a big issue—be it celebrating or doubting or reporting—INCOMPLETE results.

      That's like thinking you know the results of the 2016 election at 8 pm.

      Replying to @ClaraJeffery

      For the topline candidates, any breathless reporting is premature. but at 71%, I think it's fair to start talking about the poor performance of Joe Biden, who is hovering at the 15% threshold.

          Im firmly in the Bernie camp and want him to win Iowa but I’d be happy to take Bernie getting second place if Biden fell below Klobuchar in the final tally just for the takes

          I dunno. Feels to me like if people in media and the campaigns gave a crap about democracy, they'd wait for a real count instead of all these premature conclusions that spawn conspiracy theories.
