It has been a great primary. Bernie's campaign was essential to keep

the party a progressive one. Now he needs to help solidify a progressive message for HRC to take to the people in the fall. Now, unified and motivated, the Democratic party with its liberal, moderate, and leftist members will smash the neo-fascist tea parties in an historic landslide.

And some candidates are under a legal cloud.

That said, I have been told that my vote is neither needed, nor wanted, by certain supporters.

And I am okay with that.
