Unacceptable. So again, we will have a thorough and independent review of exactly what happened last night. Right now, we are in the process of making sure that we get the results out. That is what we will stay focused on. Donald trump has suggested that this whole process is rigged. How do you combat that or assure the americans that it is something that we can trust the data . We have said all along, that we would make the caucuses more transparent, and this year, we are reporting out more data than we have ever reported before and in addition to that, we have paper trails that we have never had before.

Anyway, thank you al
