Tom Perez: ‘I am Calling on the Iowa Democratic Party to Immediately Begin a Recanvass’

Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Tom Perez demanded the Iowa Democratic Party (IDP) “to immediately begin a recanvass” because they still do not have the results from the caucus.

Perez made the announcement before he told the IDP. He also forgot an important detail:

The caucus took place on Monday. The DNC only has 97% of the results with former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg in the lead with 26.2% of the state’s delegates.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is slightly behind with 26.1% of the delegates. However, he leads in the popular vote with 2,5000 votes.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) sits in third with 18.2% of the delegates. Former Vice President Joe Biden is in fourth place with 15.8% of the delegates.
