    NH youth turnout was greater than 2018 and 2008 primary numbers.

    Republican NH lawmakers also passed a law recently to curb youth turnout

    its also apparently just an old ass state.

    2018 doesn’t really seem to be a fair comparison. 2008 I’m not surprised by.

    We’re talking about getting a man who wants to make a lot of change into office and then making that change.

    Without a strong grassroots effort, I’m afraid that this will be somewhat reminiscent of Obama. Sanders is obviously more authentic but overall he’ll be the candidate who couldn’t get it done.

    You’re being disingenuous if you’re ignoring the huge turnout among minority, poc, and immigrant voting pools that are all drastically voting for bernie.

    his 2016 and 2020 have obviously revitalized grassroots movements. Particularly if bloomberg buying his way into the election is the establishments insurance policy

    Trust me, I’m being genuine.

    The Sander’s campaign is a great accomplishment for the grassroots but I’m just trying to be realistic. This is an uphill battle already and there’s still the general and if he’s wins, his presidency.

    I respect the positive outlook you have on this but we’ll have to see how this plays out.

    Fair enough. Bernie will definitely need to pick up more steam to avoid a brokered convention and have volunteers put in as much effort nationwide for primaries as they did for Iowa and nh

    make all election days state holidays and do automatic voter registration on 18th birthdays. national elections = national holidays

    It wasn't as clear of a victory to Bernie as expected

    think of it like this

    replace petes name with bidens

    amys name with warren

    and then put amy and pete 4th and 5th

    this would be seen as an expected result not too long ago

    instead, Biden support f***ing tanked and pete ate up most of it.

    so many biden supporters see electability as number 1 so pete getting that bogus victory tour helped here. the hope coming into all this is the moderates would all eat into each other, instead biden just tanked. meanwhile yang and tulsi who i imagine have a solid amount of supporters who would go to bernie took up nearly 6% of the voe

    warren hanging on for dear life, and there's certainly still some progressives clinging to her who could flip to bernie.

    meanwhile its about to get really ugly for pete in the more diverse states, although I wouldn't rule out some f***ery in nevada with the caucus app and the misinformation being run on Bernie there. And while most campaigns see a huge boost following a win, I have to imagine the MSM will either shift the narrative or just ramp up attacks on Bernie.

    Nothing says revolution like struggling against Pete Buttigieg during the primaries.

    buttigieg literally spent his entire resources and time into iowa and NH, two of the most non diverse states in the country. he's gonna have a very rough time keeping up momentum deeper into the race.

    This is a pretty exciting primary because there are so many variables.

    If Pete starts to flop then he’ll drop out and Biden will get a resurgence. If Biden drops Pete will climb even higher. If Warren drops Bernie will have a more commanding lead. Bloomberg and Klob are sort of a wild card. Either of them could absorb a Pete/Biden crash, or their crash could lend support to Pete or Biden.

    With Biden, I can see him staying in to see how he performs in southern states. I don’t see where Warren thinks she could win at so idk why she’d stay in.

    So many ups and downs man

    Bernie went slightly down in winning probability according to bookies. I don't know why. I think he's in a good spot right now.

    The media used reverse psychology by not giving Bernie coverage so that it would light a fire in liberals to vote for their candidate this whole time Mr. Bernie Sanders

    I’m not saying he can’t win but if the youth turnout is a reflection of anything, it’s that this revolution isn’t much of a revolution.

    I could be wrong and the general might be different.

    the revolution will be ̶t̶e̶l̶e̶v̶i̶s̶e̶d̶ shouted throughout an echo chamber on twitter
