Bernie just lost a vote in California.

After reminding a millennial to register to vote for the primaries several times over the last 2 months. She finally got to it, only one day late. She wanted to vote for Bernie. The good news is she will be registered for the the General Election where she will vote (as of now) for Hillary Clinton.

Sorry Bernie.

I, too, revel in others not being able to cast a primary ballot (even if it is their own fault).

Go Hillary!!!!!

You people are unlikable. How does this not get deleted, but calling someone a name does? What is worse?

But you were celebrating, clear as day. Maybe you're so far down the rabbit hole you don't see the obvious with this stuff anymore.

The sad part of it is, they're all like that. Maybe they got the likability trait from their candidate.

It was never part of his message. $27, the MILLIONS of dollars his THOUSANDS of supporters were sending him, that was part of his message.

None of them registered.

Takes about one minute to fill out an online form in PA. You usually have your card in 2-3 days.
