    Or it means that the bulk of Democrats weren’t where he was when they voted in the primary.

      Look up how few people vote in primaries, their age and demographic distribution. Saying that the bulk of Democrats wanted Hilary is just disingenuous. They made changes to make the process less openly bias afterwards for a reason.

        So help turn people out to vote. There are established methods to turn environmentalists into regular primary voters (eg: the Environmental Voter Project)

        If you don’t do that, this kind of thing will keep on happening.

          I voted for Bernie in the primary. Even though I’m in a state he’d never win the primary in, and knew would go Republican in the general. I’m really sick of you fucks who tell me I need to spend more time getting out the vote when me and my entire friends group vote, even though it’s essentially a waste of time already.

          There’s maybe a half dozen states in the country that me getting involved would matter in. Our system is a joke. Why would I piss away my time and get harassed if I’m not in one?

            The Democratic primary isn’t winner-take-all by state, so your vote likely made a difference in how many delegates he got.
