More proof of Bernie’s grassroots power: Sanders has stunning, and practically absurd, lead over Clinton in ISideWith.com poll

As the Iowa caucus nears, and the margins between the two frontrunners in each party varies widely in scientific polls, ISideWith.com has given a less conventional insight into how voters might be leaning.

As of Tuesday, the independent polling site shows Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders winning a hard-to-fathom 98% of states against Hillary Clinton, based on 229,278 votes cast since October. Clinton, meanwhile, is at 1.96 percent.

Similarly, it does not look good for Hillary against the Republican frontrunner Donald Trump according to the survey, with the outspoken billionaire winning an unthinkable 88% of states compared to Clinton’s 12%, based on 213,640 votes.

Although ISideWith is obviously far from a scientific poll, it does portray how widespread the grassroots Sanders movement has become.

However, it can’t be ignored that the results are primarily from millennial voters, who are more likely to take an online poll and lean liberal.

I can feel it in the air. People are pissed and the Oligarchs are going to be sent packing.

Landslides are on the horizon.

Go, Bernie!

PEACE
LOVE
