Interesting tidbit from 2008 NY Dem primary race...
...I copied this from a facebook post in We Want Bernie Sanders:
"Obama lost NY. This is far from over. Bernie still gathered a significant portion of the vote and delegates. Hope lives on!
Also, in 2008 the initial primary vote is quite interesting. Some areas showed "0" for Obama even in black neighborhoods. After the vote was retallied that figure changed drastically, though Clinton still won.
From Wikipedia: ""After the votes were initially counted on election night, certain districts near New York City were found to be missing their vote tallies for Obama.[2] The New York Times conducted a review of the unofficial results from the primary. They found that, among New York City's 6,106 election districts participating, 80 districts did not record a single vote for Obama, including heavily black districts like Harlem, as well as districts next to others where Obama had very favorable results. City election officials reviewed the vote tallies and found several inaccuracies. For example, in Harlem where Clinton led Obama 141 to 0, the recounted vote was counted as 261 to 136, Clinton.[3] In Brooklyn the primary night vote was 118 to 0, Clinton, whereas the recounted vote went 118 to 116, Clinton.[3]
Democratic leaders blamed the discrepancies on "human error" due to weary election officials on primary day. According to ABC News, however, other candidates such as John Edwards did not have this problem; it seemed to be almost exclusive to Obama.[4]"
