Looking at the NY Times map of results the college campus counties still have precincts not reported. That should help Bernie's numbers go up.

It's ridiculous that the Iowa Dem Party still doesn't have all the results out yet. Everybody could've driven them to Dem HQ in Des Moines by now.

Biden is definitely benefiting because there is little discussion about how poorly he did.
Wouldn’t be surprised if the delay was orchestrated by the DNC to prop up Biden, hurt Sanders, with the App as a convenient excuse. Literally within the last week:
-Changed the debate rules to allow Bloomberg (Plan B, Biden is plan A).
-Des Moines register didn’t do their usual pre caucus poll. Hurts Sanders/helped Biden.
-Held up releases caucus results. Again hurts Sanders/helps Biden.

The DNC is going to do everything possible to stop Sanders/prop up Biden. They are really getting desperate.
:nod:

They'd rather have Trump than Bernie.

Why is that?
Bernie can only do so much without Congress, whether it is controlled by the Donks or the Conks.
Is it because of the long term damage it would cause the party because he wouldn't accomplish anything in 4 years?
I could probably come up with a few more reasons, but let's cut to the chase. Why?

Trump over Bernie any day. At least my 401K keeps growing with Trump. I'm also anxious to see Trump's continued destruction of the traditional Republican Party into a more fringe political party.
