...in each state, most of the early primary voting occurs before the candidates have aired any commercials or held any campaign events. For Bernie Sanders, this means that early voting happens, pretty much everywhere, before anyone knows who he is. Certainly, early voting occurs in each state before voters have developed a sufficient level of familiarity and comfort with Sanders to vote for him.
But on Election Day among voters whove been present and attentive for each candidates commercials, local news coverage, and live events Sanders tends to tie or beat Clinton.
In fact, thats the real reason Sanders does well in caucuses.
Its not because caucuses require a real time investment, as the media likes to euphemistically say, but because caucuses require that you vote on Election Day rather than well before it....
