The Bernie clan appears more an isolated clan as per the numbers (generalizing, I’m sure there are people who love both)

Also, people vote more for personality than policy (hence why she’s losing) so I’m not sure it’d as simple as saying “they’re both liberal therefore same supporters!”

I think the assumption is there based on their policies as it seems logical to go from one to the other as they're rather similar in - Krusty Mar 3, 05:26 1
