that voter turnout in the general is low?!

Here, these are candidates chosen for you by two parties. Like what you see? Come vote, we want your vote now. Something is wrong with this picture.

We won. And that's not even addressing election fraud. Yet she's winning.

It's not over...

She is always spot on. Kudos to Jane for being able to keep her cool under incredible pressure and consistently deliver an informed, insightful, rational message. What an asset she is to Bernie and his campaign.

BTW - We saw Bernie in KC, and when Jane walked out on stage, she lit up the room. What a wonderful smile and beautiful presence. Some spouses and (ahem) candidates suck the air out of the room with their enmity and self-importance, but Dr. Sanders is a true gem. So glad she's on our side!
