2020 Dem primaries discussion thread

It's insane how well Joe is doing with virtually money.

Insane!

I think he was saying the BernieBros would be the enthusiastic ones willing to risk getting coronavirus while waiting in line.

I know but I'm just wondering whom the Goop readers et al might go for.

its equally amazing how well biden did in states where he had virtually no campaign presence

Bernie subreddit in full meltdown right now.

Yeah sure kid, it's the states fault you didn't registered in time or at all. This is why the youth vote is unreliable.

Talking about r/politics? I just got banned for going against their Sanders circle jerk.

Wonder how big of a deal Corona played in all this. I got in and out of the voting place in like a half-hour, but I could imagine someone worrying about being stuck in a line with a bunch of people potentially spreading the virus. We're talking about people who wouldn't normally vote here. You add that to the belief that Sanders was going to clean up today potentially creating a 2016-esque situation where way fewer people turned out because they didn't think they had to. I could see this being a underrepresented result.

But you could argue that if anyone was going to show up under fears of virus, that it'd be Sanders people, so maybe not.

Just another case of 35 and under crowd being when it comes to turnout. I voted last Thursday and was the youngest person I saw at my polling place, and I'm ing old.

Bernie gonna get a TX, CA boost to pull within punching distance. From there, he just has to outperform Joe state by state in the upcoming weeks.

With the DNC, MSM and PACs all working tirelessly to stop him. It also hurts him that there’s no more debates between now and March 17...I think a head to head debate would do wonders for Bernie.

Only path I see for him is a huge Biden up.

Of all candidates who could pull that off, it'd've been him. Biden really doesn't have to do much to make his case. We all know who he is, and that's either good enough or it's not.

California is the last shoe to drop tonight. If comrade fails to win by any sizable amount, tonight will have been an unmitigated disaster

You mean the anti-vaxers? Probably casting a write in vote for a Ron Paul / Rand Paul ticket

[Reck]

WTF there seems to be a massive depression in California. CNN just interviewed a guy who barely made it who said he'd vote for Bernie and he was calling his father so he could vote. Guy was told, polls have closed. lol

Why Bernie will always be such a flawed candidate

Do you ever consider the possibility that Bernie hurts Bernie?

It's over. Sanders has no chance at a majority and no argument for the nomination if Biden doesn't get a majority since Biden won three battleground states tonight, one by an enormous margin, while Sanders only took one. Bernie's only real shot is a clean sweep of the four rust belt battleground states (Wisc, Mich, Ohio, Penn) with dominating wins since Biden almost certainly takes Florida comfortably.

There's an odd subset that are left wingers. Smell their own farts crowd.

Anti-vaxxers seem to all be hard right or hard left.

Is Bernie getting trolled at this point? They didn't call California for Bernie right off. Is it a sign he'll win it but not by a rout?

Maybe he could've been, you know, a Democrat....

I actually voted at a neighborhood rec center and was pleasantly surprised to see so many millennials. This wasn't a place where there are a ton of young folks like a campus, so it implied that a lot of kids and young homeowners took the time. Maybe Austin democrats are hungrier than the rest of the country on average.

Oh well they can keep getting ed by student loans and stagnant wages, serves them right since they don't seem to give a .

Nevermind, AP called it immediately.

Maybe that Marianne Williamson chick then

Bernie wins California.

[DarrinS]

The South Carolina spear chuckers who voted for Biden aren’t any smarter.

So, no?

Yeah that’s kinda my feeling as well at this point. I’m a millennial but no debt and contributed the max to Sanders so just fine financially. If the ones with six figures of student loan debt and a job at Starbucks can’t bother to vote in midterms or primaries then why the should I care about them.
