Bernie got 87% of 18-24 year olds and Hillary got 69% of 65+ voters. It's incredible how drastic the generational divide is.

Not really since age plays a big role in how liberal you vote in reality. Even if Bernie was elected, zero percent of his policies would get through Congress (Hillary may not have much more luck) which a lot of younger people may not be thinking about, and instead are concentrating on the message.

It's pretty funny though how exactly Hillary has followed the Obama model to victory in these primaries. When Hillary (and Sanders) eeked out these symbolic victories in 08, Bams cleaned up in the Southern states/Caucus' to such a significant degree that he pretty much wiped away all her wins and sneaked under the radar (well, not to people actually paying attention to the math) to a delegate victory.

That's pretty much what made Nate Silver as huge as he was. He was probably the one person to call attention to the delegate math.

So Bernie wins the symbolic victory, even by beating expectations, but he's still not getting any closer to winning. He's just staying alive to the next round of primaries. Which maybe works out best since it keeps Hillary fighting.

In Mississippi's GOP primary (75% reporting), 2.5% have voted for candidates who've dropped out; 4.9% voted for Rubio.
I remember the good old days when we were excited that Rubio was dropping below 20% thresholds. Now he's not even doubling Carson and Jeb.

In 2008 in Michigan, Obama won 60% of 18-24 year olds and Hillary won 48% of 65+. Bernie outperformed Obama by 27 points. That's a drastic gulf in how divided voters are by age.

Rubio is done. And the best chance the GOP has to the White House is wiped out.

There's a negative billion chance Bernie runs in 2024.

Every single one of these is a precinct in the City of Detroit:

They all have to report in before Wayne County does anything.

Uh are you forgetting what happened with the Michigan primary in 2008?
 
I meant if somehow he could stop time and transport, not saying he would actually run then >_< pls have some faith in your fellow gaffer.

It is a big sign of things to come in 2024, sanders in 2024 might actually win the nomination.
He could be the greatest politician of all time, I still wouldn't be comfortable voting for an 82 year old man to be the nominee. That's ridiculous.
