Bernie wins Democrats Abroad.

Although I live in Thailand, because I can't afford to live in the US since I retired, I chose to vote in my state primary. However, many of my expat friends here do vote in the Democrats Abroad primary and I was told that here in Thailand Bernie won by a huge margin. Therefore I was not surprised, but I was thrilled to get the news today that Senator Sanders won Democrats Abroad worldwide by a sizable margin. Expats tend to be knowledgable and progressive, so naturally they would vote for the best option.

When you live abroad you have access to the very things Senator Sanders fights for. It's only natural we would support him.
