Bottom line is that the quality of the app used in an election that could decide the president for the next 8 years was left up to high school level coding from an untested, uncontested company, with "software developers" with little to no credentials.

Oh yeah. Terrible decision-making. There shouldn't have been an app at all. And not only shouldn't it exist, it was poorly done. More details keep coming out about that:

I have bigger issues with caucuses in general and in Iowa specifically disenfranchising people from being able to vote at all, but that doesn't excuse that this was also terribly implemented.
