They sure do love to fuck this country over. I need to stop being hopeful for real change in this country because people aren’t educated. It goes with party lines. Sanders sits as Independent in Congress, right? He might side with Dems in voting but they don't trust him to be the big horse in the White House race. We have something like this in Poland, an MP runs for office from a certain's party list and is a member of the parliament club if he gets elected but he's not a member of the party itself. Sanders strikes me like a guy who's on the party election list but not a member of the party itself. And party officials will indeed backstab him if he grows too big.

USA must be the only country who allows such thing? Thankfully this isn't the general election. We allow that quite often in the general election quite often too. As I said, California believes in the power of democracy (even if the rest of the country proves the opposite of that tonight) “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Bickering whether Cal democracy is different or better than the rest of US democracy sounds... ahem... non-democratic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,541 Posted March 4, 2020 #5476 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Well, if Sanders can hold Texas, win California (while locking Biden out), and decrease the gap in Massachusetts, Sanders may still lead the delegate count after tonight. “Sport has the power to change the world.

Monzanator 3,612 Posted March 4, 2020 #5477 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Biden is projected to win Massachussetts. Elizabeth Warren can't even win her home state. Hell, even Walter Mondale won Minnesota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In practice, you can show up at polling booth even after deadline, as long as polling booth is active and vote. Olympian1010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, this shows that Biden is indeed the best candidate. His numbers are impressive in 2 of Bernie’s key demographics: Very liberals and Independents. Even in young people, his numbers are not that bad, second best behind Bernie. Olympian1010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
