Anybody got data behind this awesome meme?

Sort of.

She was ranked the most politically left compared with the rest of the senate freshmen in 2018. Bernie was the second most politically left of all the senators in the same session.

I know there's another site that shows how they voted on everything but I haven't found it yet.

It's also worth noting that she served less than one term, so her sample size is incredibly small compared to most Senators, but I honestly couldn't give a shit. She's not a facist and she's not sundowning, so whatever, fucking run her. Whatever gives the Democrats a shot at limping over the finish line is fine.

Someone just quick copy paste the back half of this comment onto all campaign materials and let's save all these donations for a killer inaugural.

I liked her before but looking into a lot of these makes me excited for what she might be able to do

Her nomination speech just got posted all over youtube. Feels good, yo.

Why oh why is this a FOX link...

It's a local affiliate. It's better than the national guys.

I read her Wikipedia page and came away with a more positive view of her than I went in with. That's a start at least.

Yes. Hot damn. Thank you!

My data shows the senator most aligned with Bernie Sanders is Bernie Sanders
