They felt Trump stood no chance and it was their best opportunity to break that ultimate glass ceiling. If Bernie was the candidate I honestly think it would have been a landslide victory for him. I generally vote Republican but if this was Trump vs Bernie, I may have voted Bernie. As it was I voted off primary party because both candidates were deplorable options in my mind.
A clear message emerged from this result though. The majority of Americans are fed up with the establishment and this was a way to send a message.
It appears Hillary will still win the popular vote. So not really the majority of Americans. Just the ones on the bible and rust belt. And Florida, apparently.
