May 2016

We are not talking about people were not registered as Democrats. This is about people who were registered as Democrats and were purged. The Attorney General of NY has received thousands of complaints about that and has stated so. Whole blocks of voters in Brooklyn were purged. It is under investigation and there are lawsuits pending. For you to claim that the voters themselves are lying about being purged is extremely ignorant or arrogant or both.
