I salute you.

I know I haven't been the most, how shall I say it, accommodating person to those that support Sen. Sanders, but I will try to moderate my replies.
Peace to you and your family members.

(111,896 posts)that has voted thus far. Supposedly, Bernie is running even to Biden in Texas according to the most recent polls, but from what I see I'm inclined to disagree with those polls.

(1,989 posts)My wife has changed her vote for next Tuesday from Warren to Biden as a result of tonight. My parents were considering Bloomberg but ultimately voted for Biden. I think Biden will do better in Texas than the latest polls show.

(111,896 posts)Several bands in Austin organized to rally for Bernie, but the comments on Facebook that announced the rally had plenty of negative remarks. They may have drawn a crowd to their events, but the people that turned out were there to hear the music, not to support Bernie.

(10,721 posts)...somehow Biden supporters have deluded themselves into thinking it's Sanders supporters on DU who are being inconsistent (after weeks of being completely dismissive of the popular vote). It's hysterical.
This place would make for a fascinating sociological and psychological study.

(10,721 posts)And here we are tonight with Biden supporters touting the popular vote in multiple threads, while I don't see any Sanders supporters saying anything different regarding the popular vote and will of the people. The latter is being consistent, while the former is not.
That's my point. The hypocrisy is very clearly coming from the Biden supporters, not the Sanders supporters.

(44,228 posts)The Green Papers is an excellent primary resource. They do a great job of keeping track of every single detail - from popular vote to delegate apportionment.

Popular vote right now is:
Biden: 323,290
Bernie: 268,136
Difference of 55k votes.
