(62,325 posts)on states that won't help him win the delegates he needs to win the Nom. He was far too UNKNOWN an entity, with only about 2% of the electorate even having heard of him when he started out. He won two states, yes he won Iowa, without the coin tossing, two states it was predicted he wouldn't be around for just months ago.
After Super Tuesday he is likely to win California eg, he will not win NY as the Dem Party has made it impossible for people to VOTE FOR HIM here by forcing them to register back in October. I managed to get some people registered in time but anyone currently registered as an Independent eg, who just learned about Bernie, thanks to the Dem Party Machine, cannot vote for him now in NY.
Sad isn't it that the Party has to use these vote suppression tactics to try to win it for THEIR choice of candidate?
So he won't send much money here as it would be futile thanks to the rigged system.
However in open Primary states as people get to know him, they can vote for him.
I will not make predictions except to say he WILL go all the way to the Convention and as the election season progresses will gather more and more support along the way.
