To be fair, we’ve already implemented many of the progressive changes we went to see nationally in California. For instance, we already have a medicare-for-all program called “Covered California” the problem is that it’s not free.
-
California has 400+ delegates. Only 144 are decided by the popular vote. The Democratic primary is anything but. Hence, why I no longer want to endorse them.
-
FDR is the Democratic standard though, and Bernie is similar to him in many ways. But yes, Obama carried Biden to victory. Biden is voted against the democrats quite often, but sure Sanders is the odd man out. It’s whatever the party never changes. Today was the last ever election I vote as a Democrat. I will support individual candidates from different parties, but from here on out, I’m a officially a green voter. I actually want to investigate making a state senate run in 22 for them, if I’ll be eligible.
-
Yeah, I’m currently going through the stages of the grief, and I seem to be moving towards acceptance. I’ll be miserable, sad, and upset with the “adults” in this country, but I will vote for Biden over Trump.
-
Yes, that is the same in California as well.
-
Here’s a graphic that shows you the biggest divide in the party.
-
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.
-
Yeah, I just prefer the other format, so that’s why I asked.
-
I think if we went independent it would, but because conservatives can just move to other red states in the US, it won’t.
-
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)
-
I’m done with politics for a while. It’s making me the most depressed and upset I’ve been in years. I saying things I don’t mean, and it’s not healthy.
-
Yep, it’s all over. The fucking asshole moderates have won yet again. 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.
-
Biden will win the nomination tonight. He will lose the election in November. The progressives will make sure of it if it’s the last thing we do!
-
Civilian oversight committee for the police.
-
Hopefully someone else can pull through, but it is it what it is.
-
It’s not looking great for Bernie. I’m highly disappointed with the “left”. We’re going to elect a mildly racist, billionaire, who chums it up with conservatives on a daily basis into the White House. Sanders should run as an Independent just to completely fuck over Biden.
-
Becuase my generation (and a good portion of the millennials) are done with the mainstream. Mainstream has got us nowhere in the last 3 decades. We need radical change in this country, in order to save it.
-
@Maxim Fastovsky I’m assuming you went for NO on R? I’m just wondering what the argument for that would be.
-
Yeah there’s states that matter, and then there’s Mississippi, Arkansas, Kanas, Wisconsin, etc. All these primaries have done is alienate voters left and right. The infighting between progressives and moderates is reaching critical mass right now. At this point, a Moderate is a just as much as my “enemy” as a conservative. I will downright refuse to vote for Biden over Trump because they represent the same ideas to me. The party needs Sanders, but they’re not listening to the people who will decide the next 3/4 decades of elections.
-
Have they released the qualification documents for 2023 yet? It seems about a year too early.
-
Because California and Texas make up right around 25% of the United States total population . California has the same population as the 22 smallest states combined.
-
-
@Agger There should still be enough voted counted tonight in California to know the results by the way.
-
Mail-in ballots are eligible as long as they are stamped before Midnight tonight. It takes so long to count votes because of the other things I mentioned (not checking IDs, overseas voting, conditional voting, etc.) We have to verify all those, so it takes awhile. Sure it’s slow, but everyone has the greatest chance possible to get a say in our government, and that’s how it should be.
-
That’s optimistic. California results won’t be known for a week of two. That’s because we prioritize counting votes, and making sure people get to vote, over giving the media shit to talk about. California has the best election system in the US, it just isn’t quick because we care about it.
