Bernie did terribly in FL in the 2016 primaries against Hillary. I had always assumed that Florida liked its establishment friendly DLC hacks. I did not expect Bernie backed Gillum to be doing so well.
Can we stop using Gillum as a Bernie avatar? He was running his own campaign without the man’s endorsement for well over a year. Everyone that voted for Hillary over Bernie wasn’t an elitist white virtue signaling corporatist hack.
We're talking about his political philosophy, not necessarily his personality or political associations, that makes him a Berniecrat.
