I’ll never forget the day that primary happened. I worked right next to an NYC polling place. All day we had Bernie voters coming in complaining about how their voter registration had been mysteriously deleted, or had been changed back to an old address they had 9 years before, or some ridiculous shit like that. Believe whatever you want, but that election was shady as hell.
I honestly wasn’t super political before that, I barely knew who Sanders was, so it wasn’t like I had been following the primary election.
“tanked a progressive candidate”…?
Bernie got fucked by the DNC for various reasons
Bernie lost by millions of primary votes. Bernie actually lost by a bigger margin to HRC than Trump lost the popular vote to her.
