The NPR affiliate in NYC has dug into the illegal voter purge that happened in Brooklyn before the primary. The results indicated that it disproportionately impacted Hispanic voters.
It was illegal. It was and remains troubling. It needs further investigation.
However, can we please now drive a stake through all the conspiracy theories about it being done to harm Bernie Sanders?
Just prior to the primary there was a poll showing that Hispanic voters were split between Clinton and Sanders. In the actual exit polls from New York, Clinton won the Hispanic vote by a huge margin.
if you were going to carry out a sinister and illegal plot to purge voters in order to win an election, why would you target a demographic that is neutral or favorable to your campaign?
