And unlike '16, the map might get worse for Bernie rather than better, now that his strength is so concentrated among Latino voters. With so much of the Southwest in, his list of really great states starts getting pretty thin
And many states with a large Latino population from here also have large black populations, closed primaries, or a relatively conservative Latino vote--or in FL's case, all three
