and the community where I live, (SF Bay Area/East Bay) Women MY age (Feminist/LEFTIST from the 60's) showing up at rallys, meetups, canvassing, Caucuses, all ardent Bernie supporters, by visually observable significant numbers.

Is it just a weird thing here in the Bay Area? I don't know. I just kind of cringe everytime I hear/read Women over 50 are mostly HRC supporters. Maybe over 80 yeah. But Women in their mid 60's? Not in my community.

I did get to vote for 8 Bernie Sanders delegates in a special delegate caucus election a couple of months ago, I'll be checking in with them on line.

I'm looking forward to the Convention from here!

We do know quite a few older people who are for Bernie, besides us, that is. Of course our grandchildren are for Bernie.

is where you see the rise in Hillary support and that crosses the race demographic. It is so obviously a class thing. The women in your area may be upper middle class women but, are an anomaly in that you are more altruistic and educated than the status quo across the rest of the nation.

Hope this makes sense, typing on the fly here.

The first one is AMAZING in truth telling, and for that reason, this OP probably won't last long.
