Iowa needs to be given an ultimatum.

Either you abolish the caucus, and institute a straight voting booth vote, or your delegates might as well never show up to a convention.

The type of tricks and games that are pulled on both sides clearly show that this is an obsolete method that is only held onto so that this pathetic state can amass money every four years and feel important.

You would need to tell these states as well:

The state of Iowa does not run the caucuses - the political parties do. That’s why there won’t be a recount, and why people should move on. It was basically a dead heat, and that’s what counts.

The caucus isn’t the problem it’s how it was run, handled, counted etc.

Iowa’s lost the right to be first... they’re corrupt or stupid - and I’m betting on corrupt.
