I'm sorry to do this again. I'm more sorry to not have done it yesterday: IDP's new results remain riddled with basic errors.
One precinct's results are still duplicate; another's missing.
Perhaps worse: two of the 23 "recounted" precincts have NEW errors, somehow!

1) IDP has still not included a precinct in Des Moines Co. Results show a near-duplicate of another precinct, which is effectively counted twice.
@CoatsandLinen talked to local chair weeks ago. It may not affect BS/PT gap. But why are we ignoring voters?

2) In Johnson County NL6, IDP's *recount* results have Sanders getting 1 fewer county delegate with 107 votes than Warren with 104. (That delegate is worth 0.41 SDE, half of Sanders's current deficit.)
That error was not present in IDP's recanvassed results, so newly introduced.

3) In the "recount" results of Davis County's Bloomfield 3, the rounding is wrong. This time, it's Sanders who gets an erroneous extra delegate that he did not have before the recount. (That delegate is worth only 0.03 SDE.)
h/t to @fathippy2 for pointing these out last night

4) What happened with the "recount" in Jackson County 3?Vote totals unchanged. But before the Sanders-Buttigieg-Warren tie was broken by Sanders/Warren each getting a county delegate; now, Sanders/Buttigieg have 1. Why? Was there a new random draw? Was there not one before?
5) Recount significantly changed votes in Black Hawk X401 (which, OK, is point of this); but now delegates are off from vote, & I'm not sure what's correct enough to square this.
(@fathippy2 pointed me toward caucus day-tweet that matches former delegate count. 🤷♂️)

6) This is all on top of other errors. Last week, @CoatsandLinen listed precincts awarding extra delegates (& SDEs). Many are still incorrect; which is to say, either local precincts have given themselves extra weight, or the IDP is giving it to them.🤷♂️🤷♂️
