It’s a good post, but caution:
For the Primary in California Bernie’s crowds were ENORMOUS. Hillary’s were TINY.
Yet Hillary BEAT Bernie in Calif by a mile.
Really, REALLY shocked me.
Yeah, I've been saying the same thing about Romney in 2012... Plenty of FR articles (and no, FR posting police, I'm not going to hunt up links again. Either believe me or do your own #$@#$ homework... :-) ) talking about rallies with big lines outside, etc etc. No way Romney could lose, this one was in the bag....
We see how that turned out.
I'm just trying to stay out of the echo chamber that FR becomes during elections. I got badly fooled by BO in 2012, won't get fooled again.
The CA primary was early this summer after Trump locked up the nomination and the Hildabeast was looking inevitable.

She won Fresno county over communist Bernie, man, that’s really shocking, huh?
