So Just How Well Did Bernie Sanders Do in Iowa? You Might be Surprised. He’s -50% from 2016 (Yes, NEGATIVE). But WAIT, There’s More!
Now, legitimately, the Berners will say,
“Hold on… there are more candidates now! That’s not fair!
Stop pickin’ on poor, ol’ Bernie!”
Here’s where the “BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE” part of that
comes into play.
Bernie Sanders supporters have been claiming that the
socialist label will not matter so much because he will
draw in a MASSIVE NUMBER of NEW voters to replace the
independents and centrists he will inevitably lose.
So what happened? Bad news for Bernie (and the DNC):
Iowa Dem County Chair ‘Blown Away’ by Low Caucus Turnout

But WAIT, there’s MORE!
Share of first—time caucus goers, IA
Both TURNOUT and FIRST-TIME VOTERS CRATERED.
NOT GOOD for Bernie. NOT GOOD for the DNC.
And on the other side of this:
