The 2012 Iowa Caucus of the Republicans was a far larger mess. It took weeks until the final recanvassed result came out, and then it turned out Santorum had beaten Romney, contrary to what was proclaimed in the Caucus night. And finally, after some shenaningans, the vast majority of the state delegates ultimately went to... Ron Paul.

It turns out caucuses are shit and the whole thing collapses with large or greater than expected attendances. No wonder 50% or more decided to early vote in Nevada.
