(4,450 posts)I volunteered for and donated to Bernie Sanders in the last Presidential primary and was really disappointed he wasn't our candidate. I agree that Mary Burke was very "meh" although I disagree somewhat on Barrett- although he does have the personality of an old shoe, I think he's pretty progressive most of the time.
Anyway- what I was referring to was the small but significant bloc of voters who either wrote in Sanders- yes I knew a few from my Bernie volunteering days- or worse stayed home because they weren't excited about Hillary. It is obviously anyone's right to vote however they want- or even not to vote at all- but I really think SOME in the liberal wing of the State party- and again I consider myself to be part of that wing- did us all a disservice by not at least voting against Trump. Heck, it took me a good month to get over Bernie's primary loss and really get to work for the general so I get it.
But, yes, let's get that Walker bastard! Time to roll up the sleeves!
