Krystal Ball: Iowa Mess Enabled Buttigieg ‘to Basically Claim a Fake Victory for Days’

EXCERPT:

BALL: “Well, I want you to think about this from the perspective of Sanders supporters who do not have a lot of faith in this process or the Democratic Party to start with. All of this enabled Pete to basically claim a fake victory for days enabled by the Iowa Democratic Party, the maker of this app, and the media that ran with headlines that were Pete’s in the lead. And the people who are real victims here, who are putting Sanders over the top right now or close to the top right now, it’s the immigrant workers and the Latino working class people that that campaign painstakingly organized. And their voices were erased from this for days, which in my mind is downright criminal. So Pete is not a victim here. Pete got three days of saying he was the winner.”
