Tuesday's other big winner: Bernie Sanders

[Gothmog]

81. I really do not care

There have been a number of threads where sanders supporters all claim that sanders is the sole reason why Gillum won. Soros and Steyer both contributed a ton of money and help. Gillum ran a good campaign but for some reason, sanders is magical and his endorsement is being credited as the only reason why Gillum won. sanders is not magical and his endorsement is not the reason why Gillum won.

The data that I have seen indicates that African American turnout was key to Gillum's win. I hate to break it to you but sanders carries little or no weight in that demographic group. Heck, sanders refusal to stop his delegates from booing Congressman John Lewis will come up if sanders runs in 2020.

I remember Gillum speaking on behalf Hillary Clinton at the national convention. Gillum was a Clinton delegate.

I will probably contribute to Gillum but I will not do so through the sanders e-mail blast.
