Just for my own understanding:

We DID do a major effort in NY to get indies re-registered in time to vote in the primary, right?

I assume we did, but would like to have proof to offer in some of the other threads.

I keep wondering if all of these throngs of people at the Sanders rally are registered. After all, it's not like Bill and Andrew are on our team.

I mean they do want to win GE I assume. Not like they would skip the GOTV this year to make sure that Hillary had edge. That would be insane. And there is not need because her unfavorable numbers are not sky high

was a recent report that 500k have registered to vote. What that
means I'm not sure.
