On Meet the Press this morning, Bernie Sanders said that he’s losing states to Hillary Clinton in part “because poor people don’t vote.”
Chuck Todd brought up how many states with high levels of income inequality have gone for Clinton so far. Sanders said poor people aren’t voting, lamenting it as a “sad reality of American society.”
He said voter turnout needs to be higher, especially among poor people. Todd asked him if he honestly thinks he would have a better chance of winning if more
Sanders simply said “this country would be radically transformed” if more people were voting.
