cursing the state of arizona for trying to harm my map - which is the major thing on the line with this entire election

I think a lot of people in this board are being extremely narrow minded about the American voter. Of course there would be Trump people who would have voted Bernie. Of course there would be Biden people who would have voted Trump if it was Bernie. Of course there would be non voters or third party voters who only would vote for a candidate they like. Voters are incredibly complex, and that's why it is hard to say who would do better in the election. You cannot assume that voters are so simple that "well if trump gets their vote, bernie would obviously be less likely to get it than biden", it REALLY does not work that way.

hot take, those people can lick my pants.

can't tell if this is this pro or anti BLM protests

I just don't think that the democratic primaries are any indication of a general election strength, that was my main point.

There are a lot of people who like Bernie that are not democratic primary voters. Whether he would be doing better this election or not is unknowable, but his performances in the democratic primaries is not more reflective of how he would do than the national polling in 2016 that showed him doing better than Clinton.

still feel like my map is a possibility.

has any bracket made a mistake yet?
