I saw plenty of Biden yard signs in early 2020 in my area, but most of my family is more progressive than your typical Biden voter.
Younger, less "establishment" voters tend not to vote in the primary anyway.
For reference, Biden got almost 20 million out of 36 million votes in the primary. He got 81 million votes in the general election.
Great. Sounds like they don't need our votes then. They can get their geriatric procorporate genocide supporting trash of a human being elected all on their own.
Yeah.. why do you think only 1 out of 4 of his General election voters picked him in the primary? You seem a little confused.
I voted for Biden in the 2020 general. I didn't want to but he made a good show like he was going to work with progressives and leftists during his term. Now I and and others know better. We didn't want to vote for him before and we won't vote for him again. You're the one who's confused.
Summary of the conversation...
You: Where all the Biden primary voters?
Me: It's was the old people who just voted the status quo.
You: Well, they can nominate Biden without my help.
Me: They did, it only took 1/4th of the general turnout to win the primary.
You: Well, I only voted for him in the General.
Me: Slams head on wall...
