      perhaps, although i remember his campaign being pretty horrible at allocating funds for things that matter and not for tablets for the leadership

        and not for tablets for the leadership

        People need computers to work. In that case the options were a new computer, or a new "keyboard"* for a Surface Book. The keyboard was cheaper.

        * It has more shit in it that makes the computer faster.

          sure, again that compared to the paltry amount he spent on ads was pretty pathetic

          campaigns need tech to run, but if they don't put the money towards winning it's a waste of money in an already crowded race, and where Bernie endorsed a GND candidate who had been an established local politician with grassroots support who wasn't this guy

            Absolutely they didn't spend enough on ads, but that has nothing to do with the computer. They just didn't know how to run a campaign.

            The woman Bernie endorsed is some fauxgressive neolib.
