May I remind the seething masses, unpopular though this opinion may be, that more people have voted for Hillary than Bernie. They just tend to be less vocal about who they support on the internet.
- Terr_ 10y agoThe editorial already points that out. I think the real issue here is people are being blasted with some misleadingly official-looking "Election Over! X totally and indisputably Wins!" news, the day before a big set of elections.

Which would probably be more meaningful if (1) all states had similar election systems for Democratic delegates, and (2) all states voted at the same time. > They just tend to be less vocal about who they support on the internet. No, that's not at all true.
- dllthomas 10y ago> No, that's not at all true. Given the demographics, I suspect that it is at least a little true.
- fhood 10y agoMy point is that going into a complete fervor over how Bernie was cheated out of the nomination seems counterproductive. First as an american citizen I feel it is your patriotic duty vote anti-Trump rather than pro-anyone. And I am worried by the number of Bernie supporters that seem to feel that if the primary doesn't go their way they aren't going to vote at all. No vote is half a vote for Trump.
