For example, let’s say Bernie Sanders was the nominee in 2024 against Trump. A lot of people on the internet seem to like him, even some conservatives. But would liberals fall in line and vote for him enough to beat Trump?

Bernie’s supporters always seem to attack the Democrats liberal base, do you think they’d sit home if Bernie or any leftist was the nominee.

      You know when conservatives post pictures of counties being all one color thus showing significant voting support most people speak up about how land doesn’t vote and explain why those maps are kind of useless. Just food for thought.

        my thought immediately when seeing this. interesting to see the geographic spread but misleading to frame it as more area = more popular

        Yeah, that’s terrible color choice (I’m assuming, anyway, since Pete and sanders are presumably meant to be different colors)

            “not being able to tell the difference between something literally at all” is definitely the same as “referring to candidates both of whom you could differentiate between”. He went by “mayor pete” and I could not remember how to spell his late name.
