“A New York City Board of Elections official has been suspended after reports of voters being turned away and polling sites opening late in Brooklyn during Tuesday’s presidential primary election.
Brooklyn Chief Clerk Diane Haslet-Rudiano has been suspended without pay pending an internal probe into ‘the administration of the voter rolls’
Roughly eight percent of active voters in Brooklyn were removed from the voter-registration roll.
Haslett-Rudiano made an error that caused them to be removed during a periodical purging for voters who died or moved away. Other problems included some polling sites being opened late, training of poll workers and incorrect primary notifications were mailed out.”
Around 6 per cent of voters in East Devon disappeared from our electoral roll, postal voting papers had to be reissued because they were wrongly printed (blamed on inexperienced helpers) and our electoral officer decided not to send out election officials to visit homes where people were not registered and the officer was called to a parliamentary committee to explain himself.
Then? Nothing at all happened.
