Even blaming the app is wrong in my opinion. They had backup plans in place where the precincts would just phone their results in. (as you would expect) ... except nobody was answering the phones. They were interviewing people on TV who were trying to report their precincts results over the phone, and were interviewing them while on hold. I remember one guy saying he's been waiting for hours for someone to answer. The app is a scapegoat because people are willing to accept "testing in production" as something that just happens, instead of what in reality should be considered gross negligence.
