What Did — And Didn’t — Go Down In The Iowa Caucuses
While there is still a lot we don’t know about the app used on caucus night, what we do know demonstrates exactly why Iowa Democrats should have known better than to use an app at all. A number of completely foreseeable problems emerged that could have been avoided, like the fact that many caucus chairs couldn’t even download the app due to poor cell phone reception.

I agree with you two. I generally like a system where we go from smaller states to larger ones, with accommodations made to ensure the smaller states are representative. I think a fairly easy fix would be removing Iowa from the equation and starting off with New Hampshire, a Nevada primary, then South Carolina. Then you could have a handful of representative biggish states like Illinois or Florida, followed by a bonanza on Super Tuesday.
