A Sanders campaign official confirmed to The Hill in an email that the campaign will seek a “partial” recanvass, but it wasn’t immediately clear how many precincts would be contested.
The announcement comes shortly after the Iowa Democratic Party released updated totals for the state’s caucuses held last week following days of uncertainty over the contest’s winner.

Note: I contacted IDP with a request for comment about “Dubuque 31” this morning. I asked them about my reporting that their reported result does NOT match the results of the local math sheet. They have not responded. But they can’t say they had no clue they are wrong.
