Why can't BS Grasp this..
Sanders Wrong on Voter Turnout
snip//
Sen. Bernie Sanders wrongly claimed that voter turnout in 2016 was the lowest in 20 years. In fact, turnout was higher than it was in 2012.
The overall turnout was 60.2 percent in 2016, up from 58.6 percent four years earlier. In addition, the percentage of eligible voters casting ballots for president in 2016 was 59.3 percent the third highest in the last 44 years. Only 2008 and 2004 were higher.

Says he "isn't prepared to back Dems just because of party labels".. but he didn't bother to get to knowJon Ossoff, who is Pro-Choice, and, is running for an important Congressional seat.. Tom Price's in Georgia!
"Jon Ossoff on the issues, presented in a way Bernie Sanders can understand"
snip//
Womens Heath & Planned Parenthood
Ossoff is an unapologetic supporter of the concept of women being able to make their own decisions regarding reproductive health care, and Ossoff is a strong supporter of Planned Parenthood.
What a concept for a "progressive"!!!
snip//
National Security
Ossoff has promised to oppose unnecessary military intervention overseas and...only support the use of force where US national security is at stake
Ossoff opposes the use of torture
Ossoff has called for an investigation into "Russian interference in American politics
Ossoff referred to the Iraq War as reckless
Much More.. https://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/04/19/1654449/-Jon-Ossoff-on-the-issues-presented-in-a-way-Bernie-Sanders-can-understan
Jon Ossoff took the high road in Georgia.. I hope he wins so badly.. Nancy Pelosi was there for him as was Samuel L Jackson.. Hollywood came out for him! Alyssa Milano and Christopher Gorham got the Vote out!
We'll never know if a few positive words instead of dismissal could have made the difference from the "most popular politician in America".
Not sure why BS wouldn't want to have gotten to know Jon Ossoff who would have immediately gone to Congress if he had won 50% and we would have had one more Dem to fight the Fascistrumps.
