The Nevada Democratic Party today announced it won't use the same app blamed for throwing the Iowa caucuses into chaos, even though the organization previously paid the tech company believed to have developed it.

"NV Dems can confidently say that what happened in the Iowa caucus last night will not happen in Nevada on February 22nd," Nevada State Democratic Party Chair William McCurdy said in a statement. "We will not be employing the same app or vendor used in the Iowa caucus. We had already developed a series of backups and redundant reporting systems, and are currently evaluating the best path forward."


A Democratic technology consultant confirmed to POLITICO that the software Iowa used was the handiwork of Shadow Inc., a D.C.-based outfit that received more than $63,000 from the Iowa Democratic Party in November and December.
