I wanted to be optimistic when I voted…

But just couldn’t.  As it stands right now, Sanders is the only person who can beat Trump.  After what happened in 2016, I am skeptical the DNC will “allow” him to win the nomination.

I live in a conservative area, in a county that was bright red for Trump in 2016.  Despite that, when Sanders visited on a cold week night  in February 2016, the 10,000 seat arena was packed, and a  few thousand outside, willing to wait until he arrived late just before 10.  He had a lot of support here. Had he been the nominee, believe my county would have still gone for Trump, but  not by as wide a margin.  The state as  a whole would have been won by Sanders.

But  good luck trying to get the DNC to ever understand that.
