(22,651 posts)I'm always surprised by the friendship with the Clintons.
yes it is a shame youth vote is always so low. Was only 18% youth vote for the entire Clinton/Trump election (most voted in the D party)
This time Michigan youth voter turnout was about 12? percent. I guess most of those youth votes were early voters. Because the field primary was 17? contenders for president, I didn't want to early vote here in Texas and had to wait 3 hours in line.
Once I voted I was surprised to see the ballot still had 12 names on it. Those that had dropped out in the past 1-2 days I can understand why they're still on a ballot but people who dropped out long ago were on the ballot.
When you look at the numbers though Sanders clearly did not win- but he got a lot of votes. was the state about 400k to 500kBiden win? Those 400k weren't 'youth' either. I'm positive Joe Biden won't discount or disparage the very progressive Ds. I'm also positive if Sanders loses MM will vote for Joe Biden and so will I. So let us please be kind to each other- we're on the same side.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
