The Democratic National Committee had “extensive oversight” over the app that upended the Iowa caucuses, according to a report from Yahoo! News.

According to the Iowa caucuses, nearly two weeks later, still include an asterisk because Shadow’s app, which was supposed to tally and transmit the votes, failed when it was needed most. (RELATED: Tucker Carlson Mocks Iowa Caucus Chaos, Says Democrats ‘Couldn’t Organize Nap Time For A 6-Year-Old’)
Chairman Tom Perez made no mention of any connection between the DNC and the app’s development, instead tweeting promises to help the Iowa Democratic Party tally the results as quickly and accurately as possible.
What happened last night in Iowa should never happen again. We have staff working around the clock to assist the Iowa Democratic Party to ensure that all votes are counted.

A day later, Perez called for a recanvass, again making no mention of any connection.
Enough is enough. In light of the problems that have emerged in the implementation of the delegate selection plan and in order to assure public confidence in the results, I am calling on the Iowa Democratic Party to immediately begin a recanvass.

Democratic Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard called for Perez’s resignation several days later in New Hampshire.
Wait, you mean the DNC under Tom Perez was extensively involved in the development the Shadow App that totally corrupted the Iowa Caucus? Just like everyone immediately assumed? Shocking. (Tulsi is still the only candidate to call for Perez’s resignation) https://t.co/G3oMREVHBJ
