Supporters of President Donald Trump inundated a hotline used by Iowa caucus precinct leaders to report their tallies, contributing to significant delays in the final tally, Iowa Democratic Party officials said.
NBC News reported on Thursday that the party's hotline number was repeatedly posted on the online message board 4chan as voting took place on Monday night. Its users, who are anonymous and have trolled and harassed the president's political opponents, urged others to call in.
"Uh oh how unfortunate it would be for a bunch of mischief makers to start clogging the lines," one user wrote, according to NBC.
Ken Sagar, a member of Iowa's Democratic central committee, said on Wednesday night that he fielded calls from people who dialed in to express their support for the president, Bloomberg News reported.

Someone said the libs would find a way to blame Iowa on Trump.
Here you go.

The Rats were pretty amused when 4chan loonies swamped the Skype testimony of an expert witness in the George Zimmerman trial. Now we're supposed to take the word of the Democrats in Iowa their snafu was the fault of Trump supporters on 4chan?
Now I don't know whether to laugh, or laugh harder. Some news for them: The phones would never have had to be used if you had developed a decent app and had it tested by a third party, like DHS wanted to do.

Ah yes.... further proof that... if you are a Democrat... nothing is ever your fault or that of your leaders (Magic "D").
It's a glorious state of being. Perpetual, even.
Of course some folks (like myself)...
just call it stuckonstupid.
