Probably stronger against Bernie in this group than Hillary was. Then again, Hillary was the one who was stronger with that group 8 years earlier, in 2008, so who knows?

It was highly ironic to me in the fall of 2016 that the pundits were asking if Hillary could win the white working class voters that Obama won, when 8 years earlier they'd been asking incessantly whether Obama could win the white working class voters who had gone overwhelmingly for Hillary in the primaries.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
