2020 Nevada Democratic caucuses (view source)
Revision as of 16:42, February 22, 2020

After the results of the individual precinct votes are released, a winner is determined based on the total number of pledged delegates and the projected number of delegates this will translate to among those 36 pledged for the national convention. Of the 36, 13 will reflect the overall state results; the other 23 will reflect results within each of the state's four congressional districts (five from the 1st district, six each from the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th). Since the slate of candidates on the date of the caucus will almost certainly change between the date of the caucus and the date of the convention, the convention will see some reshuffling of the share of delegates, as is true of those chosen in other state primaries and caucuses.<ref>https://www.thegreenpapers.com/P20/NV-D</ref>

'''Reporting Method'''
Initially, the state Democratic party intended to use the Shadow social media app for the reporting of results from the individual precincts, as was done in the Iowa caucus. Due to the extensive technical problems that resulted from the use of the app, though, it was decided to use the Google Forms app instead to send in results, via iPads distributed to the precinct chairs. As was the case in Iowa, concerns have been raised about whether the chairs were given adequate instruction in the use of the app, with some suggesting the results would be "disastrous."<ref>https://www.politico.com/news/2020/02/16/nevada-avoid-iowa-caucus-mess-115437</ref>
