Lol. But if he actually declared candidacy as an independent/third party/write in, he probably would.

He's not running in GE, and coordinated write-in effort without the candidate's involvement is nearly impossible.

If he were to mount an independent bid, he's so popular in VT that he probably could get on to the ballot and win the state. But he's not going to. That being said, I expect the third-party number there to be notably higher than it is nationally.

He would if he were going to be on the ballot. He won't be on it though.

Hopefully Jill Stein gets on there. She'll probably hit a double digit level of support if she does.

Why is Bernie so loved in Vermont?  Aren't there any conservative Republicans in the state anymore?  And if so, they must feel like their state has gone crazy.

Of course there are.  However, they probably make up about 25% of the electorate (doesn't Sanders regularly lose about 30%?), and I bet a lot of moderate VT Republicans vote for Sanders, thinking he does well for the state.

It seems New England voters swing like that (except NH, of course).

No, he will run as a third party candidate and write in candidates almost never win in statewide elections.

LOL. No, because he’s not the nominee. Get over it.
