New York suit launched after 125,000 denied vote right

A United States voter advocacy organisation has launched a lawsuit over "systematic" electoral irregularities in New York's presidential primary that led to more than 125,000 Democratic voters being dropped from poll rolls for unconfirmed reasons and denied their right to vote.

Shyla Nelson, the spokeswoman for Election Justice USA, told Al Jazeera that the group's lawsuit, filed against New York's Board of Elections at the Federal District Court in Brooklyn on Monday, is calling for provisional ballots from reportedly disenfranchised voters to be counted before the primary's results are certified.

I hope that many, MANY people voted provisionally just to have a chance at their vote(s) counting.
