It is hard to tell, but it appears that the answer to the question of whether Sanders helped or hurt depends on whether a Sanders supporter like me or a Clinton supporter like you is doing the answering. Looking at polling match ups of Obama versus Trump in swing states with nearly identical results to the Clinton v. Trump results suggests to me Sanders' primary challenge is not a big factor.

In any case, I think Clinton will win handily, so my prioritizing that she be pushed in a progressive direction before she takes office is not something I regret. Also, I think Sen. Sanders will be better for having met some black folks.

Speaking of Sanders, he's doing like a dozen Clinton campaign events over several days; I think he's doing everything he can for the ticket.
