If I had to guess, I think there are a lot of Sanders voters who were very much like our NeverTrumpers.
As much as they were going to whine about Hillary, they couldn’t see Trump being President.
These Sanders people are young and online - very connected and they get their information on the world that way - not through the networks or cable.
Wikileaks started releasing the pedophile stuff on Saturday I think. For perhaps more of these Sanders people, it was enough to have them write in Bernie, or not vote for Hillary.
I know I wrote in a couple of names on my ballot knowing full well it would be the same as invalidating my vote in that race. I couldn’t vote for the choices on that race.
I think that may be the think we don’t see yet - a write in vote for Sanders pulling Clinton votes as if Bernie was still on the ballot.
No proof of this, but the pedophile thing is likely the last straw. Comet Ping Pong Pizza is starting to blow up. This guy actually put pedophile activist logos into his corporate logos for the other businesses he owns.
A 32 to 25 margin in the midnight voting is pretty massive. It may be a very good day. Fraud is afoot in an unprecedented way, however, so anything can happen.
Not sure the Sanders people are going to forgive Hillary.
Looking at the content itself, but also the timing of the activity, the network structures, how information spreads from one account to another and so forth.
