What does that even mean?
Sigh… Go read about superdelegates. Then read about reporting. Then read about social engineering. Then look at the mob mentality of wanting to vote for the likely winner. Then apply all of that knowledge to the events as they happened during Bernie’s campaigns.
Edit: there, I typed it out since obviously nobody will actually go learn something on their own.
Superdeligates have never once decided a primary.
Here’s a simpler explanation: Progressive voters don’t turn out, even when it’s Bernie. They failed him in 16, they failed him in 20, and now they’ve failed us all.
It’s easy to mail in vote, it is easy to donate money. It’s hard to actually physically show up and vote, so they stay at home.
Superdelegates are the primary tool that the DNC used to exert influence over primaries. They’ve only ever once voted against the voter consensus, but they pledge full support early, which is then used by the media to grossly misrepresent candidate popularity. Mob mentality causes voters to pile behind the leading candidates, and thus the outcome of the primaries can be manipulated through use of super delegates. They abused this mechanism so heavily against Bernie that sweeping changes were made to the way that super delegates operate to avoid torch and pitchforks from an enraged constituency.
There, I explained it to you in a very summarized form, even though I didn’t want to.
