A private Google Spreadsheet would have gotten the job done.
This is a prime example of overcomplicating something for the sake of being "innovative". You're adding unnecessary complexity to a situation which in itself is likely to create more problems than it solves.
Counting votes, especially in a smaller situation such as a caucus, does not require a complex solution like an app. Hand counting would have been simpler and gotten the job done in these districts given the size of "voters" in each district. You're not counting literally 100 thousand or millions of votes. The votes are in the hundreds. Each district counts its votes and reports it on a centralized database would have been better if you're going through the technology route. You just need to have a simple form page for each district to input its votes and sql backend to handle a simple database with requisite security procedures of course. Its tried and true and implemented so widely the knowledge about the implementation is so common that you don't have to worry about your custom app having bugs or failing. Just hire a database administrator on contract instead of having a team of coders create a custom app. There problem solved.
or...just call in your votes to a centralized headquarters the old fashion way.
