It’s an earthquake to have Bernie Sanders’s candidate defeat Gretchen Whitmer’s candidate in Michigan. But the real goal is to keep Donald Trump’s candidate from winning this seat.

    I voted for her, every progressive I know did too. Maybe you’re thinking of the protest votes against genocide? I’m not sure if they were progressive.

      The protests (at least online) all came from progressives so I can only assume that the split democatic vote cost Kamala.

        nope. progressives aren’t radical leftists. the radical leftists who thought trump would be better for palestine did that.

        I didn’t know they were progressive I thought they were liberal for some reason. Thanks for clearing it up. For what it’s worth, people tried to talk them out of it, tried hard.
