Super Tuesday 2020 turnout in the Commonwealth of Virginia was 1.3 million voters — nearly double the number of people who voted in 2016. That's good, right?
That got our attention, because in Virginia, there's really no early voting as most people know it. They have "absentee in person" voting, in which you go and present ID and state a logistical reason you cannot vote on Election Day: a lengthy commute, or a trip out of town, or having to care for a disabled family member — stuff like that.
This means that nearly all of the Virginians who turned out today had seen and heard the news out of South Carolina this weekend. Which leads us to believe that it's Joe Biden — not Bernie Sanders or anyone else — who is driving Democratic turnout.
Today's voting isn't over, and Sanders isn't going anywhere (alas), but it's clear to us that Democrats are deciding that this is the way it's going to be. We're going to nominate someone who so terrified Trump that he committed impeachable offenses to slander him. That's our story, and we're sticking to it. We cats PURR.
