2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumTry as I might, I can only find a single difference between 2016 and every presumptive nominee since
1984 when Super Delegates began AND were included in all reported totals.
The only difference I can find is our presumptive nominee is a woman.

Hell, you have people are on DU that are proud that their use of the ignore function has effectively filtered out all opinions they disagree with.

This is simply not believable in any way.
This is the difference you are focused on.
