Hillary received about 100,000 more primary votes than bernie. Bernie is underperforming.

It is a GREAT victory for Bernie and everyone knows it!

Mississippi does not count. Bernie was NOT even expected to win in a southern state that will NOT vote for a Democrat in the GE

But he was supposed to lose Michigan to Hillary...that did not happen!

AND Michigan votes in the GE FOR Democrats!
