Iowa might have screwed up the whole nomination process

By now you probably know the story. The Iowa Democratic Party decided to use an app to report results from its caucuses this week. These events were the first primary-type votes cast in the 2020 Democratic presidential race, and would’ve set the tone for New Hampshire and the states to follow. Except the app failed, phone lines were jammed and it took the better part of the week for the full numbers to come out. So just how badly didn’t Iowa screw up the whole process? FiveThrityEight’s Nate Silver explains the candidate(s) who “won” didn’t get the massive bump they would have and the field is still way too crowded.
