    A simple vote by mail/paper vote fixes a lot of the issues.

    Seems rather simple.

    Yeah Ukraine needs to release the Iowa results. We know they have them... on Hillary Clinton's server.

    Oh well that’s just a conspiracy theory. How dare you draw clear and distinct parallels that suggest a conflict of interest. Go back to Russia.

    In theory, if properly implemented, it should be very very hard to hack. The issues are as always in implementation - and because this shit is not regulated - it's the wild wild west out there - with everyone under the sun implementing their own freaking code - it is not a surprise that it is being hacked now.

    A coin toss is bad enough, but wow. I’m totally speechless. We live in clown world.

    They got the guy who’s never seen a coin before to do the coin toss. He flipped it, kind of, and then proceeded to turn it over by hand a couple more times while looking directly at it, as per the instructions of his handlers standing around him.
    Any 3rd grader worth their marbles would’ve called bullshit. Unfortunately, there were no 3rd graders available to oversee this process.

    There will always be hackers who are just as smart as non-hackers in SW and I think turning towards electronics and saying that’ll solve it, is just a hipstery thing to say not a real plan, because even if AI coded the system, someone else will develop AI to try to hack it and they’ll eventually succeed. Im all for technology, but saying blockchain and 2fa, and buzzwords and then saying he understands tech are salesmen ploys more than a true understanding of it.

    Tech isnt going to save us from stupid.

    Well indirectly he did, he said having a president who understands tech means this stuff wont happen. Then he threw out the blockchain term which is an incredible technology dont get me wrong, but tech always comes with its fair share of problems too. He’s essentially saying he’ll understand tech so this stuff wont happen, ok if thats so legit how come so many tech companies and people who understand tech get hacked, and ddos attacks, and have security issues of their own, I dont think Yang or me or any of us understanding tech will keep hackers, scammers, people who want to do bad stuff with technology from doing it.

    This is the 'charm' of the Iowa caucus. You don't find it charming?

    Neither do I.
