In reply to the discussion: We are the base of the party. The POC, the LGBT, the feminists. [View all]oldandhappy
(6,719 posts)I have been fascinated with the map of the election returns from last evening. Is the base of the party largely located in the NYC area? I see that clinton won new york because of the enormous returns in the NYC area. The majority of the rest of the state did go for Sanders. So I assume you are telling me the POC, the LGBT, and the feminists are all in the NYC area. I am a woman and I am aging with belligerence! I am disenfranchised in some ways. I am exceedingly fortunate in other ways -- health care and fresh food. I feel caught between where you seem to feel you are and where I see myself. Yes, there are posts that make me crazy. I remind myself those folk are out there! I work my precinct. Most are old. I really do not know what to say. I want you to feel hope!
