The same way adding poll taxes, literacy tests and former prisoner restrictions kept many poor and minorities from voting.
You thought those regulations were free?
(I Looked up 'gun identification' btw, if you want to know what it is, just let me know)

Listening to Rubot now: it sounds like he is about to drop off.

Who cares?
"Hasta la vista, Marco Rubio, nice try. Just remember, if you were ugly and your name was Mark Rube, you wouldn't have gotten to do even this."

Yep, she's winning everything although it's far too early to say much about MO.

Escopeta posted In addition to that, we all know law enforcement is generally disinclined to enforce gun controls on middle-aged white people who otherwise aren't tangling with the law in some other fashion. So I'm good there as well.
Woot! Acknowledging white privilege in this thread.

It looks like Michigan might've (a) gotten some Dems' attention; (b) begat some (much earned) sympathy. :)

There may have a been a lot of strategic voting going on too. Hard to tell. A lot of the best pollsters have abandoned the primaries.

I've heard that Michigan pollsters underincluded cell phone users, who tend to be young and tend to vote for Bernie.

There are also internet polls and all kinds of garbage. If you listen to FiveThirtyEight's podcast you learn how thin some of this data is.
