I don't.
There's a fair amount of states who voted for Sanders and Trump: idaho, montana, north dakota, wisconsin, west virginia, oklahoma, kansas, nebraska - lots of these states were close races in the general, it's not hard to think that sanders would have won there since he was actually trying to address their core issue of middle class jobs. And it shows that at least the democrats in those states preferred Sanders to Clinton.
The states that voted for Sanders and Clinton: washington, oregon, colorado, minnesota, lots of new england states - basically all the guaranteed blue states no matter who the candidate is.
- fixxer 10y ago"Socialist Coder" would have voted for Bernie.... Shocked, I say, shocked. ;)
- majewsky 10y agoWell, can you counter his arguments?
- zimpenfish 10y agoDifficult to counter hypothetical arguments.
- fixxer 10y agoWe're not arguing here. Election is over. All I can say is that I would not vote for Bernie. I think: - Primary voting is suggestive of turnout, but when you've got a candidate that people are voting against out of hate, it is hard to infer true support. So, I don't know if Bernie would have won. - I heard (unconfirmed) that 9% of registered democrats voted for Trump. Such a weird section that, again, it is hard to infer support. - It is all moot now anyways.
