Nice try though, huh? What with a revolution in the making, we should be shattering turnout records. Tarheel_Dem Mar 2016 #2

OK=42 delegates

Could have happened to anyone.

But it's not happening. Someone promised to bring in "new voters" by the boatload, but turnout has been down by double digits in most contests so far. I don't think this race can be compared to 2008 since more voters seem to be turning out for Hillary than her competitor.
