``Recall, Sanders performed extremely well among rural voters compared to Hillary in the Democratic primary. He won the Wisconsin primary by 14% points; you can be sure that a critical mass of those voters opted not to vote for Hillary, thus handing the state to Trump. (Obama also blew out Hillary in the 2008 Wisconsin primary.) Unsurprisingly, Sanders also won the Michigan primary (defying the polls, which called that race spectacularly wrong) and leveled a compelling economic message tailored to the economic anxieties of voters in that state. I have almost zero doubt that propelled by increased turnout among youth, rural, and progressive voters, Sanders would have won both Michigan and Wisconsin.''
