        This dynamic alone should have tipped off pundits that the state of the race was highly volatile, but they chose to ignore the data.

        Revising my tweet from yday. The great clarion voice in the Democratic Party is Bernie Sanders. And he'll be ignored just like Dean.

        .@mtracey since almost 50% of voters didn't vote at all I consider that an "other" option as well. Neither party excited them. @lowlightpics

        they used models that assumed Hillary would drive turnout the same as Obama. It was ludicrous, she's repellant as Mitt.

        but this doesn't fit their narrative that @DrJillStein cost the election so they choose to ignore these statistics.

        THAT is the real story of the 2016 election: 3d parties became acceptable to voters. Johnson/Stein torpedoed unpopular HRC campaign

        Johnson got 3x as many votes as Stein. McMullin + various write-ins surpass Stein's ~1.4 million.
