Bernie Sanders is an Independent.

Edit: in some states it is 'unaffiliated', 'No Party', or 'unenrolled'

Edit 2: Some of you think voting matters. I don't. Some of you think the republican party can be commandeered. I don't.

Deregistering from the republican party is at a minimum about SENDING A MESSAGE.

Confusion Among California Independents Could Hurt Sanders

There’s an additional problem for hundreds of thousands of California independents: They have registered — mostly inadvertently — as members of the American Independent Party as opposed to registering with No Party Preference. This problem came to light in 2016 when the Los Angeles Times conducted a study of AIP registrants:

The Times found lots of celebrities — including a number of Hollywood lefty types — registering as AIP members under the mistaken impression that this meant registering as an “independent.” That must have been richly ironic to real members of the party founded in 1968 by segregationist George Wallace, which ultimately endorsed Donald Trump in 2016. It’s actually this misunderstanding that has kept the party viable all these years.
