Bernie Sanders is a centrist by UK standards, though. At least one analysis of the vote totals found that he would've won the electoral college count, at least based on the voters who say they would've voted for him or Trump.
It's easy to say anything to a survey that comes to you. It's about the reality of how many would actually go out and miss some work to vote for the guy.
Perhaps. My point is not that Sanders definitely would have won, but that his winning was absolutely a plausible outcome. Heck, I know two Sanders-Trump voters, so I know at least that they exist.
