and when it gets closer at the end of the month, Bernie'll win by 20% after the major upset in New York.

New Yorkers aren't in love with a carpetbagging self-important corporate Democrat.

I grew up in a traditional Massachusetts Catholic Democrat family. They nearly always chose their politics over the church and rarely did the two overlap. I don't imagine New Yorkers are all that different. I think they know someone trying to rig an election when they see one.

While being down over 20% with two weeks to go?

That is A LOT of very unlikely voters who are going to suddenly switch preferences.

Yeah, the guy might have been banned, but anyone could see how many Sanders supporters were upset with that ban and wished that WillyH could have continued painting African Americans as some sort of monolithic voting block. My favorite response I read here was when someone fired back that we could accuse whites of Stockholm Syndrome because more of them vote Republican. The fact is, we all get a vote and a person's self-interest isn't just defined by the color of their skin or any other single factor.

Stick a fork in him!

Just kidding!

It's really looking good for HRC. Hope she can wrap this up so we all can join together (those who will choose to) in supporting our democratic nominee. I'm really getting tired of all these vitriol, negativity and endless attacks.

I hate to say this but Bernie is going to get rocked. Absolutely shellacked. I could see +30 Hillary or worse.

Closed primary.
High POC population.
High Income population
High income POC population (I've lived in PG County, Charles County or Montgomery County nearly my entire life, not only is it heavily POC, it has the richest cohort of POC in the country)
White Democrats are both high income and more Establishment-oriented (lots of govt jobs, etc). Look at NOVA's demographics to get an idea how white liberals here might vote. Hint: He lost Alexandria, VA by 40 points.

I live in fucking COLLEGE PARK almost walking distance from the UMD campus and I haven't seen a single Bernie sign or sticker but I've seen a bunch of Hillary signs.

I'll be shocked if he can get above 40%.

The only thing in MD even resembling Bernie country is Western Maryland which has like, nobody in it.
