Nevada says it has backups ready to go for caucuses, will avoid an Iowa-like debacle
After all that mess in Iowa, there's another caucus right around the corner — but Nevada doesn't want anyone to freak out.
In a statement, the Nevada Democratic Party proactively reassured voters Tuesday. They can "confidently" say will be no repeat of Monday evening's Democratic caucus debacle in Iowa on Feb. 22 when Nevadans gather to select the Democratic presidential nominee. For starters, they won't be using the app that appears to have caused Iowa's issues.
That said, the state is not going app-free. In fact, they'll be using not one, but two apps to count votes (one for early voters and the other for caucus-goers), but it does sound like people will at least be better prepared on how to use them, and there are backup plans in place should things go south.
