Democratic race starts disastrously as ‘inconsistencies’ delay Iowa results
Hours after voting began there were no results as the state’s Democratic party said it was ‘simply a reporting issue’
The Democratic presidential primary contest has got off to a disastrous start after results from the highly anticipated Iowa Democratic caucuses were dramatically delayed due to “inconsistencies” in the reporting of the data.
The state’s Democratic party said it was performing “quality control” on the numbers “out of an abundance of caution”, after reports on Monday of problems with a phone app used to relay vote tallies.
