Headlines, Feb 21 – Fraud in New York's February 5th primary. That's what New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg says, the New York Post reports. Unofficial tallies have given Obama zero votes in 78 of the 6,000 election districts. Election officials have claimed that the result was but a mere 'error'. But the Obama camp is calling for an investigation, hoping not to pull off a win there, but to pick up more delegates.

Also in New York, New York Election Commissioners are choosing to return to paper ballots in 2009.

Straight off the heals of his big wins in Wisconsin and Hawaii on Tuesday, Barack Obama receives more crucial support: the 1.9 million member Teamsters Union Our Democracy is in Distress sign which will help him in Ohio on March 4th. Some more help for March 4th comes from Vermont locals and co-founders of Ben and Jerry Ice Cream. Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield had backed John Edwards. They back Obama because of his stance against the Iraq War.
