First guesses on non-certified primary results. Sanders and Ocasio's endorsements don't look that great, neither do Trump's.
I have no real thoughts on the primary results, but I thought I'd pop in just to remind everyone that:
a) there has been no action at the Federal level to counteract any possible hacking during this election, and
b) the Democrats will need, on average, to get 10% more votes than the Republicans to take Congress, due to gerrymandering
Downballot races are going pretty well for the progressive candidates, we'll see how well they hold in the generals. Failure at the local level is one of the key criticisms of the DNC, so it matters that the loud new people are doing well on that stage.
And here is the green party spoiler that may have handed a republican an election in Ohio.

I'm not even gonna quote this. The entire thing is win, no excerpts do it justice.
Every fucking chunk of that article is hilarious. It's like some sort of parable of the strange times.
so what you're saying is, Democrats more likely to vote for aliens?
