In reply to the discussion: Andrew Gillum: "We could not have done it without you, Senator @BernieSanders" [View all]Cha
(295,899 posts)50. On CNN Andrew said this was a win for the Barack Obama Wing, the Hillary Wing..
and the BS wing. AG is not a divider he's Uniter.
And, it was the "overwhelming Black Democratic Base turnout that surged him to Victory"
Gillum was just interviewed on CNN - he said this was a win for "the Barack Obama wing.....
....the Hillary Clinton wing, and the Sanders wing of the Democratic Party."
They also did an analysis on CNN of the victory, and say it was because of the overwhelming black turnout for him in the state.
It's a truly broad-based win for the entire Democratic Party and Gillum.

Good, loyal Democrats rarely make endorsements in primaries, just general elections.

You may want to research Justice Democrats' endorsements. They never endorsed Gillum....

He sounds like a good candidate. I hope we can get the vote out in Florida to elect him.
