Debbie won despite a scandal the month before, Bernie providing her opponent with his mailing list, the Bernie Bros fundraising and campaigning for Tim and Hillary only campaigning for her once for like 20 minutes .
lol, the fact it started from literally nothing to this says everything. This should have been a 30+ point blowout for her. It's thanks to Bernie's revolution that she was forced to step down as chairwoman.
It's only just begun. Y'all will continue to find that out as time goes on and the left revolts against her while Hillary's president.
Lol did Bernie think his choice stood a chance?
Debbie is an icon in dat part of Florida
She's done a lot for her constituents, why would they turn on ha?
They quit because of Weaver. Not because of Bernie or his message.
Weaver is trash and if Bernie had a better campaign, more competent campaign manager, he probably would have come even closer against Hillary.
I know it's because of Weaver and that actually makes it a bit sadder. You'd think Bernie would learn to not keep him on board. Awful manager, I was hoping the primary would be the last we heard of Jeff, but *sigh*
It's extremely hard and almost unmanageable to to take out a congressional incumbent in their party's primary. Too sad she will NEVER be Democratic chairperson EVER again.
Debbie ain't going out without a fight. It's called VOTER TURNOUT.
