2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumI still cant believe this is happening
I was all in for Bernie but never once considered voting for anyone but Hillary once she won the nomination.
I will never believe that this lunatic won enough states to become president once more it was stolen from us.
This is the third time in 16 years and with the voter suppression and gerrymandering I am feeling both defeated and enraged.
How do we make it so Democratic votes count?

(12,265 posts)We need to vote like we are losing no matter what the polls say. Clearly the Trumpers were intelligent enough to lie to pollsters thinking we would not show up and look what happened.
We also need to start listening to the working class who feel nobody is listening.

(23,971 posts)Democrats sit out half the elections and wonder why the government is moving away from us.
2018 is the next chance to make a difference. we don't have great prospects for senate pick-ups, but we need to hold as much ground as we can in both houses of congress.
