Biden should do better in the crucial rust belt states Trump won in 2016 but he'll have a real problem courting Bernie's supporters.

CNN is saying they can't call a winner in Maine, Massachusetts, or Oklahoma, but they say ME and OK are between Biden and Sanders while MA is between them plus Warren

what, guys, dont be stupid

why would you turn around and vote for trump if bernie isnt the nominee

No honest Bernie supporter would do that

They're just trolling and sowing discontent, probably with a particular agenda in mind

You can't convince them otherwise when history has shown them that progressives won't win the election.
I think there's an argument to be made that Obama ran as a progressive in 2008, and he won handily.

Everyone should vote for a candidate, not against another. No one is holding a gun against anyone's heads and demanding a vote. If no candidates resonate with you, then the ideologically consistent thing to do is to not vote.

Yes but you also need to be cognizant of what your vote means and where you live.

If you live California, sure you can assuredly cast your vote for a third party candidate or whoever you please.

But if you live in Florida or Pennsylvania and you use your vote on a third party candidate then you're basically voting for whoever you don't want to win. If you don't want Biden to win then why would you not vote for Trump (Obviously the only other one with a shot to win). Vice versa.

I understand wanting to vote for who you want to vote for but if you're not aware of what your vote might mean depending on where you live then you can do actual harm, depending on what your intentions are.

Hard agree, but his campaign in 2008 was significantly more progressive than his actual administration ended up being.

He's consistently hovered between 50-55% disapproval most of his term and he only gained like at most 3-4% approval points after the impeachment and he's slowly trickling back up (based on recent polling)

If Bernies campaign is half decent at their jobs then they might take the data from tonight and use it to adjust strategy in the future.

Does Biden do better in Virginia because he was a Senator from Maryland? It's weird to see how strong he is there and South Carolina, but North Carolina is a much tighter race.

Bernie's issue has always been minorities, especially the African American voters.

Biden is doing surprisingly well with that demographic. If that momentum keeps up, he'll beat Trump easily just with the minority vote.

Indeed. Also, since most don't vote in primaries, ALL the younger voters that support Bernie will turn up in the general election. And he'll win.

This entire election is going to be voter turn out. Trump has a lot of support, sadly, so it's going to fall on Biden or Sanders to get the less likely people to vote (minorities and younger people) to actually show up and vote.

The Electoral College map greatly favors the Democrats in every election, so in theory, if democrats actually show up and vote, anyone can beat Trump.

The whole goal of the entire party should be to pick the person that can beat Trump and appeals to the most demographics, and clearly tonight, that's Biden.
