2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: It's the Duty of Every Sanders Supporter to Vote for Hillary [View all]RazBerryBeret
(3,075 posts)23. My only duty is to cast my vote
for the person who best represents my biggest concerns with my country and my life.
NO ONE can tell me how to vote.
You can't bully people into voting for you. You can't trick them, you can't intimidate them.
This needs to be a lesson learned before the GE; this is NOT the way to win votes, for ANYONE.....

If the majority wanted Bernie, he would have the majority of votes. Hillary hasn't stolen anything.

Fair enough, if you're dismissing Sanders voters, then you clearly don't need their votes.
