In reply to the discussion: Here's Just How Massive Republicans' Super Tuesday Turnout Was [View all]Andy823
(11,495 posts)41. Well lets see
Republicans have more candidates, and the huge turnouts seem to show me that the majority don't really want Trump, so they have been coming out in huge numbers to vote for the other candidates who they hope will win INSTEAD of Trump. They will continue to come out and try and get another nominee until Trump wins the nomination. When the GE comes around you won't see that huge number turning out to vote for the racist, KKK, white supremest loving blow hard named Trump.

A lot of Sanders voters like me are sick and tired of Democratic pollitics as usual.
