If you thought Monday night’s Iowa caucus meltdown was bad, get ready, because Nevada is reportedly set to use the same technology.
CNN reported that the app created by Shadow, Inc. (yes, really) that threw the Iowa caucuses into disarray would be used for Nevada’s Feb. 22 caucus.
The Intercept’s Lee Fang reported that the Iowa Democratic Party shelled out more than $63,000 to Shadow. The Nevada Democratic Party reportedly paid $58,000 to the same company.
Nevada Dem federal account paid Shadow $58k in August, Iowa Dems state account paid Shadow $63,183 in two payments over Nov & Dec, suggesting app wasn’t developed until just months ago? Both caucus states. Shadow is a spin-off from PACRONYM, a new Dem dark money/superPAC hybrid.
