The only scenario that guaranteed Bernie a higher chance at winning? Look to the demographics of the state. The more homogeneous the state, the more likely he won. A more diverse electorate meant the greater the chance Bernie lost. Bernie lost pretty much everywhere except the Northwest, Northern Plains, and New England.

This is a point that is lost on a lot of people. It’s not even that Sanders won the white vote. He won the vote of whites who live in very white states.

Anything even faintly resembling a whiff of diversity and it was Clinton all the way, with the white voters as well as the voters of color.
