Troy Price, Chairman of the Iowa Democratic Party, addresses the media about the delayed results ... [+] from last night's Iowa caucus at the Iowa Events Center on February 04, 2020 in Des Moines, Iowa. The app that was supposed to count and report caucus results was created by Shadow Inc., a for-profit tech company cofounded in February 2019 by former Google engineer Kirsta Davis and Gerard Niemira, an engineer who worked at San Francisco microlender Kiva.org. Official results for the Iowa caucuses were supposed to be reported in the early evening on Monday night. “The underlying data and paper trail is sound,” said Mandy McClure, spokeswoman for the Iowa Democratic Party. Joe Biden’s presidential campaign committee paid Shadow just over $1,000 for its text messaging services.
