DES MOINES, Iowa (KMTV) — Iowa's coveted position as the first-in-the-nation presidential nominating contest faces its most daunting challenge following problems that kept the state Democratic Party from reporting results Monday night.
The caucuses were already facing plenty of headwinds amid criticism that the overwhelmingly white state isn't representative of the country's diversity. The Iowa Democratic Party said Monday night that results were indefinitely delayed due to “quality checks” and “inconsistencies” in some reporting.
It's an embarrassing complication that added a new layer of doubt in the caucus process that has come under increasing criticism.
