That's... Did you actually read my comment? What people? More than whom?
My argument that in wast majority of cases where progressive runs against conservative, progressive wins. And your rebuttal is to list two people who practically weren't in that situation, one who did and lost, one who did and win, and etc.
Do you think 4 people are a lot? Do you think a person from a city council is a good example of that wast amount of progressive voters showing an mass? Do you think a progressive candidate losing popular vote in primaries twice in a row is a good example of this abundance of progressive voters you're trying to convey?
I did read your comment. I saw you say that my examples didn't count, but you didn't give a good reason why they shouldn't.
No, those were just the ones off the top of my head. If you look up the data, you'll see a lot more.
No, I think that's a good example of leftists voting, when a leftist candidate is on the ballot. You know, the thing that we were talking about.
No, which is why I explained that he got screwed over.
For someone who is accusing me of not reading your comment, you sure don't seem to know what I wrote in my comments.
