Again, if Bernie said "we'll win by convincing Democrats it's time for a change" I would take no issue. But if your central argument is you can beat Trump by appealing to the disenfranchised, at some point it helps to have them come to the polls for you

Same argument holds for Biden and Klobuchar, who are running on sheer electability and came in fourth and fifth place.

was turnout low bc of technical difficulties?

I thought the technical difficulties were in the reporting, not the caucuses themselves, so I wouldn't think so?

turnout was slightly higher than 2016. don’t know why people keep saying turnout was low, if the baseline is “prior caucuses not including 2008, which was suis generis”

Sorta tempered by the caucus system being incredibly heavyweight for exactly the sort of people that Bernie is meant to turn out ( people with precarious jobs or childcare responsibilities ) that might have a different result in a ballot system

I mean it's not like we didn't test Bernie's theory 4 years ago and saw it fall flat on it's face over and over again or anything.
