Its not just millennial at all.
Look here at DU where the millennial generation is are under-represented.
I have been registered and voted straight Democratic since of age to first vote for McGovern in 1972.
One exception is I registered GOP and voted for John Anderson to try and stop Reagan in the 1980 primary and voted Carter in the general.
The negative campaigning of the Clinton campaign compared to Sanders is off the scale.
Negative campaigning by the Clinton campaign contributed to Clinton losing to POTUS Obama in 2008 (when I was also personally against Clinton, as in any Democrat except Clinton).
Clinton initiated the negative campaign in 2008 and lost. Her actions were shameful.
