It is an "unmitigated disaster," says Trump on Iowa Democratic vote counting impasse

President Donald Trump on Tuesday took a jibe at the Opposition Democrats, describing as an "unmitigated disaster" their failure to publish the results from the voting in Iowa, apparently due to a glitch in a new app used by the Democratic Party in the state.

Monday's caucuses in Iowa was the first round in the contest to pick a Democratic Party candidate to face Trump, a Republican, in the presidential election in November.

Iowa state's Democratic Party said the holdup in publishing the election outcome was a "reporting issue" while the US media reports blamed a a new app used by the party.

Officials from two Democratic campaigns told CNN that they were told the app to tabulate results had crashed. They said they had not been given any other information.

"It wasn't the first time the Iowa caucuses have produced late results, but Monday night's issues come after months of heightened criticism of the caucus process and calls for Iowa to lose its vaunted first-in-the-nation status," The Des Moines Register newspaper commented.

Reacting to the chaos and confusion in the Democratic Party, President Trump, in an early morning tweet, described it as an "unmitigated disaster."
"It would be natural for people to doubt the fairness of the process. And these are the people who want to run our entire health care system?"
