[quote=enron_by_the_sea][quote=FlyerInHi]I just looked at the map of urban vs rural counties.
Clinton won where the population is more diverse, so I’m assuming Latinos, and other minorities. My intuitive tells me Latinos prefer la secretaria Clinton. Granted, Sanders has made a lot of progress, especially with native born Latinos.
The polls were wrong. The race was not a tie. I was pretty confident Clinton would win california.[/quote]
What is amazing is that Hillary won San Francisco county (55-43%), Santa Clara county (60%-30%), San Mateo (61%-38%), Alameda county (54%-46%), Contra Costa county (60-40), Solano County (57%-43%), Napa County (60-40), Sonoma County (51-49) & Marin County (51-47)
I thought the above counties were the epicenter of Bernie Voters. Hillary winning them by such margins makes me think that in reality there are a lot fewer Bernie voters than what you would expect by browsing on the internet, twitter, reddit etc. Otherwise I am at loss to explain this result![/quote]
All those counties look generally wealthy. I think Bernie loss those areas since those areas see higher taxes for them being the 10 to the ultra 1%. Free college, healthcare, etc etc etc…all those areas see that they are going to be paying for it so no go Bernie.
Bernie mostly gets the college town/young vote and those could be clustered and much much smaller than the 2 person married household.
Marin? SF? San Mateo?? Santa Clara? These are all ultra or at least, upper wealthy incomes with homes all in the 1 mil+ areas or much much more (esp Marin).
All the other areas have also increased in value tremendously so I don’t see why you would even THINK Bernie would have support in those areas.
