Bernie wins in smaller, whiter, mostly caucus states. Hillary wins in bigger diverse primary states.

41. It's not racial. Sanders wins among Progressive Democrats, and Clinton wins non-Progressives.

Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska are Republican states, but the minority Democrats in those states are Progressives.

If you look at the minority Democrats in the Deep South states, even the Democrats they elect are not Progressive (i.e., less accepting of GLBT rights, reproductive health freedoms, collective bargaining rights, sensible gun regulation, etc.).

Clinton's success in the least Progressive region of our country (e.g., where even the Democrats are not Progressive) is not surprising, and those who insert race into the issue are missing the point.

Leaving aside the African American vote in the Deep South, Clinton wins the white vote in those states whereas she loses the white vote elsewhere. This is a cultural non-Progressive voter issue that crosses racial lines in the Deep South. STOP BLAMING AFRICAN AMERICAN VOTERS FOR THE NON-PROGRESSIVE VOTES IN THE DEEP SOUTH. The Dixiecrats (link) were NOT African Americans so stop it.
