Why on earth did they make an app which they didn't even have time to get approved? This could have been done easily with a website. Honestly, they could have used Google Forms. A secure, off the shelf, and much cheaper option would have be to setup a G Suite workplace, mail security tokens to the caucus leaders, have them make accounts on a computer, and submit the results through a form.

You can't bill 10's of thousands of dollars to a donation funded political organization if you do that.
Why not?

"IT Services and Support"

The real issue with that approach would probably be a requirement to have a computer on site.

Ironically the real issues is that they probably weren't able to bill enough.
Errrr exactly ... and I’d love to see the emails from folks going ... don’t do this!
