More critically, does that segment of he electorate represent the decisive segment of the electorate for the upcoming election? I don't think it does. I think the 70k votes in those midwest swing states that will determine everything come from a very different segment, and have gravely different concerns, than
@Todem's clientele. And I think Sanders speaks to those people and their concerns in a very similar way Trump does. The question then becomes, does the socialism boogie man outweigh Trump's myriad failings in their consideration?
I think Sanders will be seen to represent their interests, put their issues at the forefront more effectively than Trump.
