At two Democratic Iowa caucuses, a coin flip was needed to determine the winner

How close were the Democratic Iowa caucuses? At at least two precincts, coin flips were apparently needed to decide which candidate — Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders — got the available delegates.

According to West Davenport, Iowa, resident Andrew Tadlock, two round of counting left Clinton and Sanders with 81 votes each, leading to the caucus coin flip. Clinton won there.

In Polk County, Clinton and Sanders were tied at 61. (Sanders won that coin flip, too.)

Under Iowa’s Democratic caucusing rules, ties can be determined by a coin flip.

this is why a caucus is no way to go about the serious business of selecting your presidential candidates, and also why iowa is no place to start.

Last I heard this morning on the way to work was Hillary owned a 4 vote lead in Iowa...............4 Votes !!!!!!!

Sanders needed to beat Hillary soundly in Iowa. It signals that as unsavory as Hillary is as a candidate..1/2 of the voters(who bothered to caucus) know Sanders is a fcking joke. He will likely win NH because of the large independent and Masshole vote...but... That will be his last win. Hillary will curbstomp him from there on.

A total of 6 coin flips determined 7 delegates. Canckles won all 6 flips, otherwise comrade sanders would have walked away with the win.

The Patriots will offer Hill a free agent contract.

If Hillary! really did go 6x6 in the coin-toss department, that should definitely be a separate political-media story all by itself.

They went with the old "heads I win, tails you lose" ploy.

better punch line: "When monica's doing the tossing, it always comes up heads".
