Sen. Bernie Sanders won't be coming out for either of the Democratic presidential candidates who face off in Vermont (and some other less important states) tomorrow. He's an independent, he declared, so he won't be stepping into the Democrats' decision, though he will be campaigning heavily for the Democrat in the general election.
He will, however, be voting in the Democratic primary, he said today. "Of course I'm going to vote," he said. Is that not a party event too? Sanders shrugged that off.
Publicly he's not getting involved, but in the privacy of the ballot he is. Wouldn't say which one he'd be voting for. I would say the odds are huge that he is checking off the box next to Obama's name.
