Democratic
Party officials in the US state of Iowa have found new errors in the
original count in Monday’s Iowa caucus where Democratic
presidential candidate Hillary Clinton narrowly beat Bernie Sanders.
The audit by
the Iowa Democratic Party discovered errors in five of 14 precincts
across the state from last week’s caucuses that shrink Clinton’s
overall advantage to a 0.25 percent lead over Sanders.
Sanders
picked up small additional totals of state delegate equivalents
because of precinct mistakes in Marion, Woodbury and Poweshiek
counties. Reports of discrepancies in other precincts are still being
reviewed.

Sanders
campaign director in Iowa, Pete D’Alessandro, said in an interview
Sunday that he welcomed the additional delegates that were put into
the Vermont senator’s corner because of the errors.
