But support for Trump in the general election is largely driven by independents who were allowed to vote in West Virginia’s Democratic primary. More than half would back Trump against either Hillary Clinton or Sanders.

Thirty-six percent of the Democratic primary voters are independents, compared to just 18 percent in 2008.

That result was fairly consistent, with NBC News putting the number of Trump supporters voting for Bernie at 39 percent. If you don’t include those Trump supporters, Hillary wins the state by over 16,000 votes and ten percentage points, and that’s even after her comments about coal were blown out of all context and proportion.

4. Unfortunately all that means is WV is guaranteed Trump EVs

But nobody really expected otherwise with any credibility. It wouldn't matter who got the Dem nod.

12. Now it all makes sense

I was trying to figure out how super-green Bernie beat Hillary in the state that votes coal even as coal destroys them. I forgot it was an open primary. Duh.

14. Yes, Hillary would have won without the Vulgar talking Yam voters.
