What about the disinfranchised NYC voters?
"NYT: Many New York City Precincts Initially Reported Zero Votes For Obama By Eric Kleefeld - February 16, 2008, 2:59PM
A new look at the election results from Super Tuesday could end up giving Barack Obama a few more delegates from New York — it turns out that hundreds of voting machines in New York City initially reported zero votes for him, the New York Times reports, but those numbers are now finally coming in through a formal review.
The executive director of the city's Board of Elections said that while such counting errors often happen as a result of human error, "they're not usually that big."
Indeed, even a Hillary-supporting state Assemblyman said that a margin of 118-0 in one precinct "has to be a mistake."
I haven't seen this story covered anywhere else. Is anyone looking into how this could happen? This should be a major news item. Especially since it happened in Clinton's "home" State, where the Governor is an avid supporter.
As a NYer, I want answers.

But where is CNN, MSNBC, the Nightly News outlets? I'm emailing them all, asking why fear of disenfranchised voters in Pakistan is bigger news than disenfranchised voters in NY. I hope anyone who agrees will do the same.
