      They always shift right when it’s an election year and you don’t fall in line. I call it the “we don’t need you” strategy. They did it to Bernie supporters too.

      ignoring what results?

      biden beat uncommitted 6 to 1.

      uncommitted finished slightly higher than what uncommitted normally runs.

      what you have in this thread are people trying to convince themselves that barely getting more of a percentage of the vote that uncommitted normally gets is a huge statement because a lot of people voted for their issue, while totally ignoring the number of people who voted overall and the other reasons why people would vote uncommitted.
