Totals from both Caucus & Primaries:
The majority of Popular Votes were in the
23 Clinton States
Just my personal opinion about Caucuses:
*Caucuses aren't a true reflection of the voting preferences for an entire
state
*Caucuses are unable to sustain the record-breaking amount of voters in this
day and age, creating chaos, confusion, mistakes, & fraud
*Caucuses disenfranchise a great many people
^^ these folks are the backbone and the majority of the Democratic Party
Caucuses are a thing of the past and have no place in the 21st Century
