Bernie Sanders voted for himself, of course on Tuesday in Vermont.
I will tell you after a lot of thought, I voted for me for president, the Vermont senator said, smiling at a man he had just taken a selfie with.
Congratulations, Bernie. Good luck out there, replied the man, who patted Sanders on the back and laughed.
The Democratic presidential candidate and his wife, Jane Sanders, cast their votes at a polling station in Burlington around 7:30 a.m., according to a pool report.
Nice warm day, a woman at the local community center where Sanders voted joked (it was about 12 degrees outside). Nice Vermont day.

(7,358 posts)I just voted for Bernie about an hour ago. I felt really proud to be voting for someone who I truly believe in, and trust. I haven't made up my mind if I will be able to get passed my disgust with the establishment Dem Hillary. It would be the first Presidential Race I've sat out of. I'll have to think about it.

Just like in 2008, the more I heard her and her positions (the ones I could figure out were her's instead of pandered) the LESS I liked what I learned.
As unlikely as it seems, the 'old curmudgeon' has the new hope; the consist ant and refreshingly bold progressive platform of my idealistic 60's youth.
