(Tuesday, April 19, 2016 9:09 pm) — Bernie Sanders criticized New York’s closed primary, decrying the fact that 27% of New Yorkers were ineligible to vote in Tuesday’s primary election because they are not registered with either major party.
“That’s wrong,” Sanders told a crowd at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. “I would hope that in future primary elections in New York state, the officials there make some fundamental changes about how they do business.”
