To the Editor:
    A poll such as this article describes that discounts voters who didn't participate in the 2008 caucuses clips off every voter who will be between 18 and 25 yrs old in our coming presidential election, but who was ineligible two rounds ago. That's about 15% of the electorate,and it's a demographic that's overwhelmingly for Bernie Sanders. With such an omission, a reported edge of 9% for secretary Clinton can't be more than the margin of error.
