Iowa has made zero progress posting results since this afternoon–still stuck at 62%. At this rate, Trump will finish the border wall before we know who won Iowa. https://t.co/O7sIublLsx

Iowa caucus results incomprehensibly presented even when they are (partially) reported. Sanders won most initial votes so far but you'd never know it from this>>> https://t.co/O7sIublLsx

Correction: There is one First Stepper on the full list. (Thanks, @Liz_Wheeler ). It's a long list! If Trump tells us about them all he won't have time to give a speech. https://t.co/R8pD6choOo https://t.co/JwN7wlaCeF

IOWA WAS A DEBACLE IN 1988 too–it's just that the media was largely at fault so it didn't (except by @Saletan) get deeply reported. (The MSM tried to count the initial vote themselves, and failed.) This years f-up was arguably more transparent, at least https://t.co/217XIhBJRP

Alternatively: If you have a non-parliamentary system that punishes 3d parties as brutally as ours does, you need the 2 parties to be relatively easy to take over & redirect (eg Dem party where regulars supported LBJ's Vietnam War in '60s, were eventually beaten by dissidents). https://t.co/sYz923U5TU

So Buttigieg's campaign hurt itself by complaining and killing the poll? https://t.co/jrIdDV0nky

If Buttigieg DIDN'T do that well, he's done pretty well for himself:
Step 1: Kill off big DMR poll by complaining. Check
Step 2: Actual caucus results totally screwed up and delayed. Check
Step 3: In the meantime, declare victory. Check— Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) February 4, 2020
