Local City of New York sources admit Brooklyn, where large numbers of registered democrats dropped off lists, is six months to a year behind in updating voter registrations.
The numbers do not look like they would have made a significant difference unless they are just the tip of an iceberg. Beaten Bernie Sanders is crying foul.
