Technology is already creating hiccups for the 2020 e******n mere hours into the caucuses. Democratic county chairs in Iowa told Bloomberg that precinct chairs were having problems downloading or signing into the mobile app used to tabulate and share results from the roughly 1,700 sites. They could still provide results through a phone line, but the problems threatened to delay reporting on results for hours.

Couldn’t agree more. We’ve turned into a generation where actually going somewhere and filling out something is just too much.

Absentee b****ts are received by the city clerk brought to the precinct on E******n Day and fed into the machine by precinct workers. The signatures on b****t applications are checked against those on the v***r r**********ns at his time v**ers must also present identification or sign an affidavit attesting to their identity unless recognized by precinct workers. The b****ts can be either recounted or rescanned and the b****ts from each precinct are stored in sealed bags in sealed containers and kept in the custody of the local police.

We used to do the punch cards behind curtains.
Then paper and black pens to fill in dots.
In our local last year there were 2 machines.
If they have that this November, I'm asking for a paper b****t.
