The popular vote numbers are convincing on the face until you realize that Sanders conceded before all the primaries were held. This means for a lot of states Biden was the only option.

It would be a better argument if Sanders was a viable candidate in every race.

Regardless he did concede and you can litigate the reasons for that if you guys want.

Lmao, first that guy claims he won the popular vote, then you claim he didn't withdraw many months into both primaries. Whats the next claim going to be? That the DNC chairs held each voter at gunpoint?
