so if Hillary wins by around 10%, what percent of the remaining electorate will Bernie have to win in the remaining races on average?

Combined with the states coming up on the 26th? About 64%

Sanders best poll in the last week still had Clinton up by 6, so not really?

I'm expecting that those 3 million calls and army of canvassers will have moved things a little bit for Bernie.

If she performs to polling, despite all that campaigning on the Bernie side, you really have to question what effect does any of those efforts even have? Sure a BernieBro can drag some friends with him to an open primary, but are closed primaries pretty much decided regardless of the campaign effort? Siena had Hillary at +10 from 4/6 to 4/11.

Yeah, but party registration closed like 6 months ago so :lol: that a bunch of people that have been registered for at least those 6 months will suddenly flip.

I'm sure a lot of people here remember how rabid the paultards were and how insane they got by the end. many of his supporters just sort of quietly disbanded and eventually the die-hards drifted off as well. the bernouts will do the same, in time.

Their absence on this website is mostly due to purges. Meanwhile, the antiestablishment, antiwar, proweed, conspiracy theorist, audit the fed candidate from 4-8 years ago was disproportionately popular among young, white, male posters on reddit. This cycle, the overwhelming favorite on reddit is an antiestablishment candidate who has antiwar views foisted upon him, is pro weed, wants to audit the fed, brings out the conspiracy theorists AND promises college loan forgiveness. Which may have become relevant to their lives during the intervening years.

It's probably different people though. It's doesn't seem like much overlap.
