2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumDoes anyone know of polling or an article comparing Hillary vs Bernie in swing states?
i.e. the states that will make all the difference in the General Election? E.g. Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Colorado, New Mexico.
Would guess is Bernie would be less off-putting to independents in critical swing states, but I have no real data on this.
However, strategically, which candidate is more electable in the swing is a huge question that we should consider as we try to take the presidency away from the hands of the horrific Donald Trump.

But the article you linked to provides a perspective not factored into any polls in this point... how Hillary would do against Trump in a debate. I also talked about that at
