Iowa margin between Clinton, Sanders shifts as errors found


Source: DesMoines Register

Party Chairwoman Andy McGuire the day after Monday's caucuses said no review would be conducted, and that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s narrow victory over Bernie Sanders is final.

But as errors are being discovered, the final tally is being changed, party officials confirmed to The Des Moines Register Friday morning.

"Both the Sanders and Clinton campaigns have flagged a very small number of concerns for us, and we are looking at them all on a case-by-case basis," Iowa Democratic Party spokesman Sam Lau told the Register.

They cite one error being corrected in the article, in Grinnell precinct. Original tally had been Clinton 8; Sanders 18. Corrected tally is Clinton 7; Sanders 19.

It was due to a math error, which was something I wondered about in the video where caucus goers who were not present were counted. They were doing the math manually there; not even an effing calculator!

8. If this process happened in just a few places (not caught on camera) and it wouldn't take many

Then Hilary won by cheating...errr I mean poor math skills on the part of her buds back at the offices where these things are flipped.

No wonder Ms HRC 2016 vanity license plate put such a lid on transparency, there are things that if revealed might change the winner of a primary. If the errors recovered revealed Hill won more delegates you know damn well we'd have transparency up the ass.

Just to be clear- Hillary won with 49.6% of the vote... Bernie had 49.4%

Who really cares about a vote or two when the margin is that large?

3. And this is how the stats of the country would go because of BIASED agendas and Single celled desire to Win, with the truth being just part of the cost .

9. I'm think more all the time that Sanders won outright. As the Des Moines Register said ... something "smells" in Iowa. I wonder if it is demonstrated that Bernie won by a couple tenths of a percent if the Hillarians will talk about a win being a win ... or will they then want to settle for a tie?

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.
