“I don’t believe it. Sanders’ best rally has been but a fraction of what Trump got on average in 2016.”

Sanders is pulling 11-15k per rally now

Sanders support is real. It’s genuine. It’s enthusiastic. We should not underestimate it.

Likely not enough to win a general election (Thank God) because there are too many of us non-Millenial voters still alive.

I just did a search on Google News. Most recent rallies were attended by 3000 or fewer. There was a rally he had in Richmond for which it was reported there were thousands with a mile-long line outside for people waiting to get in.

I don’t see where Sanders is getting 11-15k in any rally. Maybe he did in Richmond, maybe not.

One thing to get turnout of true believers at a Sanders rally, it’s another thing to get voters to turn out and vote for Sanders. I don’t remember any stats on dem voter turnout at the recent dem primaries. If primary turnout has been high, say equal to or greater than dem turnout in the 2016 primaries, then its time to worry. If not it’s a Trump landslide and good pickups down ballots.
