In my lifetime, I’ve never seen a candidate like Hillary ignite so many people, except maybe Obama.

I’d have to look back at the voter tallies between 2008 and now.

According to Wiki, about 18 million voted for Obama in the primaries (and roughly a similar number for Hillary back then).

Bernie’s behind Hillary by a couple million votes at this point, and he’s way off the pace set by Obama in 2008 (by every metric).

The Green Papers has this as the popular vote tally to date:

Hillary Clinton 10,496,503
Donald Trump 8,794,954
Bernard Sanders 7,819,653
Ted Cruz 6,451,662
Marco Rubio 3,486,348
John Kasich 3,204,450 (Yes, sixth in a five-person race)
