But that element of the conspiracy doesn't make sense, in that Buttigieg needed a good result (which all indications seem to suggest that he got, even if he didn't outright win), even more than Sanders did. That same 538 article had Buttigieg's percentage odds dropping from 4 to <1 without Iowa. I think Hanlon's razor applies here.
