A big problem is that it takes 2-3 hours to vote in the inner city. GOTV in the districts she'd kill in is very very hard. People don't have time for it.
And it's been made much harder with the newly enacted Voter ID law. Democratic turnout in those areas is abysmal at best in anything outside of the GE.
I was up at 4am, worked 6 hours at my day job and then 10 at the polls. It was very very busy in my incredibly red community. The GOP shows up and did so in droves to smack down Trump. Sanders won by more then I would have expected. I find it hilarious that the accusations of fraud and shenanigans NEVER ever come up when Sanders wins. I'm in the infamous Waukesha County and have worked elections here for six years now. While I'm relieved to not be "blamed" for one not going the way people like, I find it hilarious that the screams and wails of maleficence are silent.
Meh, onward. Thanks for the much needed hug. Back at cha.
Oh, but on a very positive note, my good friend who's a former DUer won reelection handily in his Milwaukee County Supervisor race which makes me very happy.
