New submitter em1ly writes: A source familiar with the Nevada version of the error-ridden Iowa caucus app spoke to Motherboard about even more issues with the app. From the report: “After logging into the app, users were presented with a dashboard letting them submit how many caucus attendees they wished to add for each candidate, according to the app. A pop-up then asked, ‘Are you sure you want to submit the first alignment? Please ensure all in-person participant counts are correct before confirming.’ But submitting the counts for the first alignment did not work, according to a source. Motherboard granted the source anonymity to speak candidly about a technical issue. ‘Error,’ a second pop-up reads. ‘Could not submit alignment.'” A Shadow spokesperson told Motherboard that “Because the deadline for the Nevada app was later, Shadow’s Nevada app was still in beta testing, and that testing identified some errors that were being fixed.” They also said that the app was on track for a “successful rollout” with the Nevada Democratic Party.
“There was a new release ready to test in Nevada following the Iowa caucuses. That version wasn’t ready for use and has not been, and will not be released,” they added.
Nevada Democrats have already said they will not use the app.
