An anonymous reader quotes a report from CNET: _Nevada’s Democratic Party said Thursday it [plans to use iPads loaded with survey app Google Forms to calculate voting results](https://www.cnet.com/news/nevada-democrats-to-use-google-forms-based-calculator-to-track-caucus/#ftag=CAD590a51e) in next week’s caucuses. The system is an effort to avoid a repeat of the [Iowa caucus chaos](https://politics.slashdot.org/story/20/02/04/1835228/iowa-caucus-debacle-is-one-of-the-most-stunning-tech-failures-ever). The app will be loaded onto 2,000 iPads purchased by the party and distributed to precinct chairs, according to a memo signed by party Executive Director Alana Mounce seen by the [Associated Press](https://www.usnews.com/news/politics/articles/2020-02-13/nevada-democrats-unveil-new-caucus-plan-after-iowa-chaos) Thursday. Google’s app will calculate and submit results electronically, while a second step will rely on submissions also being made by phone. Nevada’s caucuses will be held on Feb. 22._
