5. PROBLEMS IN NM --
This was posted on another forum:

Albuquerque-AP) -- A glitch in a telephone system could cause a
little confusion in today's Democratic presidential caucus.
The state Democratic Party says there were problems with about
three percent of the 198-thousand calls it made to notify voters of
the sites where they should cast their ballots.
In some cases the wrong location was given to the resident and
in others the voter may have moved. In either case, a party
spokeswoman says cards were mailed out giving voters the correct
information on voting locations.

Because the election is being conducted by the Democratic Party
instead of the state, many people are to vote at different voting
sites.

KRQE (said) they've already gotten some calls from confused voters who've been steered to the wrong caucus site. Reason sounds like the one cited in the last graf below. Case in point KRQEs heard about is Torrance County: there's apparently only one caucus site in the county, but people have been given various locations as the site they need to show up at today. The info they're getting applies to the GENERAL elex polling places for November. Where they're getting the bum steer is in being told to report to those places today...'sted of the single Torrance Co. caucus site they need to be headed for.

Tell your friends to be on the lookout.
