Bernie seems to have had significant down ballot influence in my neck of the woods. In the county commissioner contest, the three Progressive candidates trounced the Old Guard Democratic candidates in the primaries. I expected one of them to win, maybe on the second, and probably not on the third. But it was a solid set of wins across the board.

If these three win the general election (a high probability), it will overturn a decades long dominance of the Commission by R's and Bluedogs.


You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
