So, BERNIE WON.

And "Tarrant, who invested about $7 million of his own money into the race, was unable to make it competitive, facing Sanders' overwhelming popularity and name recognition."


So not only did he lose, but he's also out 7 MILLION dollars.


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's what you get bitch.

Don't you love the state where the Independents (Firefly pun...hee) get 65% of the Vote? The county by county map was varying shades of yellow. The whole thing.

Ahhh. I <3 802

why didn't you like Tarrant, he actually had a clue and wasn't a communist ass.

Maybe I like communist asses, as opposed to just regular asses.

Also, I don't like the way Tarrant looks, or his negative campaign, or the fact that he's republican, or how he held a political thing in the gym on my campus and didn't invite college students. In fact, I don't like anything about him.

And I like communists. Emma Goldman, Bernie Sanders, it'a all good.

i really know very little about politics, but i know a hell of a lot about people. i've met bernie and hes AMAZING, not only that, but vt farmers are like in love with him and um...my dad is a vt farmer. he does a lot for us. plus, my friend's stepdad knows tarrant pretty well (i wont say names), and my friend says hes not a very good person. i dont give a shit about skills people have, i care about the people themselves.

i didnt even fucking vote. i was going to though, for the record.

I shouldn't really care even, it's not like i'll ever be moving back to vermont seeing as there are incredibly few opportunities there for any recent graduate...I'm not saying there are none, just, not enough, especially those with the opportunity for advancement (at least in most fields)

I know that there's like shit in the math/science fields in Vermont for people who are starting, so I totally agree with you there.

Tarrant wanted to expand the job opportunities in Vermont in technical fields...

I know he did, but Bernie Sanders doesn't, hence me not caring anymore. I really do love VT, but if it's not even going to try to increase job opps for college grads w/ tech degrees, it becomes irrelevant and impractical for me to go back. I mean, I still have another 2 or so state elections (senate, etc) before I graduate, but it takes a long time to create jobs, especially when more and more businesses keep leaving the state...

Bernie is the epitome of Vermont. He doesn't even go by his last name, or even "Bernard." He's just Bernie, everyone knows him, and I think it's really cute. His picture on The Daily Show versus Tarrant was so great. Tarrant looks like the guy who used to beat up Bernie in high school. YAY NERDSSSSSSSSS!!!
