IA needs to release all the results at once.

Releasing incomplete caucus results is like releasing incomplete poll results. My first question is what precincts are included and what precincts are excluded.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

If the race is as tight as estimates are making it out to be, releasing incomplete results may make it seem like a candidate won when in fact they did not once the rest of the precincts are included. This whole thing has been a giant mess.
