    He had about 1/3 of Democratic primary voters going for him. In a highly fractured field, this was giving him a majority of delegates in 2020. He hasn’t ever been in a position to actually win, despite all the conspiracy-mongering.

    The makeup of the DNC has also changed significantly over time.

      Cool

      You can continue to live in your reality where politicians are owed votes for existing, and a 45% popular vote despite 8 opposition canidates being ran against you somehow translates to 1/3rd of the vote.

      The leftists will work to try to find a way out of this mess you are insistant in keeping us all trapped in.

        They’re going to use the results of the rat fucking to show there wasn’t any ratfucking.

        They’ll also ignore the fact that Bernie didn’t have an active campaign when most of the country could even vote when they use the numbers for the whole country.

        Or what’s actually needed is understanding the scale of change in public opinion that’s needed to actually get somebody like Sanders elected as President.
