After Bernie Sanders won the New Hampshire primary on Tuesday, February 11, Politico announced the victory with a small, hand-drawn portrait of the Senator.

They absolutely put a picture of Chevy Chase next to Bernie's name in the NH results. Somebody is having a laugh. https://t.co/fZAYxLLn5p— Ol' (@Ol') 1581484952.0
Of course, Twitter wasn't going to let the opportunity pass without cracking a joke or two.

Oh no @politico. You’re so blissfully unself-aware. And you made Chevy Chase trend like he died. https://t.co/M9UbD9BRPP— Steve Berman (@Steve Berman) 1581500501.0
When people saw "Chevy Chase" trending on Twitter, many assumed the worst.

#ChevyChase when he found out he won The New Hampshire Primary. You can call me #BernieSanders https://t.co/EJAOKkIayZ— Marlene T. Diaz (@Marlene T. Diaz) 1581519505.0
Surely Chase has earned the Presidency for his unforgettable Hollywood roles?
Vote for Fletch in 2020. #ChevyChase This tweet will fall flat amongst the under 40 crowd. https://t.co/miuetSenRS— Portland Beer 🌎🍺 (@Portland Beer 🌎🍺) 1581489681.0
Congratulations to Bernie Sanders and Chevy Chase on coming out of New Hampshire leading the Democratic field.
