They then lost several of those states in the general. Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump and not Bernie Sanders. It's a different situation.
Interesting comment from a Democrat below... can you say he's voting for the wrong party... but at least goes to the poles not voting for "socialism" so he says ( I bet he voted for 0bama though.)
"...there is no way on God's Green Earth that I would ever vote for Hillary Clinton. The primary elections in my state require me to vote within my party. Bernie was included on the Democratic ticket here so I voted for him. Never would I vote for him in any kind of general election. I voted Trump in November. If the silly girl from New York thinks I would vote for her or anybody who espouses Socialism or Communism, she is nuts. MOVE TO RUSSIA-HONEY and take Bernie with you.
