Re: On Prioritizing the Popular Vote (2.00 / 1)

First off, I live in Ann Arbor, a bastion of progressive politics in this state.  I also teach adults who live in Metro Detroit who are overwhelmingly Democratic voters.  I assure you that no one I knew thought there would be a re-vote at any point.  Many stayed home.  Most people I discuss this with oppose counting that contest as such, even some who are Clinton supporters.  The group I refer to includes retirees, school teachers, clergy, academics, undergraduate and graduate students, business people, lawyers, and health care professionals.  None of us "knew" what you claim we did.  A few voted Clinton and a few voted uncommitted.  Most did not participate at all.  You may argue this is not a representative sample, as it is anecdotal, but you will need provide data to counter this perception.  But again, please do not presume to tell us what we knew.


The future is unwritten
