Yep, same. Primaries followed by a general, with totally different electorates, is a shitty voting system for this reason! Voters aren't wrong to vote strategically! And looking back at the eventual 2020 result, I'm not sure Warren would have pulled it out.

The thing is, I'm not sure how strategic it is to vote for someone you don't actually want. How is everyone's second or third choice better than *most* people's first choice who then gets the support of everyone else's first choice? Primaries are to see who WE want. Not them. There are more of us.
