A little before the polls here closed at 9 p.m., the polling site coordinator at Brooklyn Borough Hall estimated that about 10% of those who showed up to vote on Tuesday were previously removed by the board of elections.

1. perhaps they weren't properly registered

everyplace has rules, if you cant follow them, or bother to be aware of them, perhaps you shouldnt do anything as complicated as mark a ballot.

3. Or perhaps someone forged their signature on an affiliation change form.

Or they moved to a brand-new building and every voter in the building was taken off the rolls.

2. Be sure and check your registration before November

5. in NY you have until Oct. 14 to register...again if needed nt

6. Probably should make state appropriate posts

for registration deadlines so the confusion will be less for many people. That's a pretty generous time line for the general. Wonder why primaries have such long lead times in New York.

4. Wonder how many didn't show up once they checked their registration and found out they were screwed

Also one precinct.....

Well at least they are predictable.
