If Sanders were to overcome long odds and beat Clinton, he would likely face Trump, the billionaire businessman who owned up to four casinos in Atlantic City from 1984 to 2009. Trump once owned three casinos in Atlantic City, but he turned over control of them through bankruptcy proceedings.
He and Hillary Clinton are eyeing 142 delegates up for grabs in New Jersey.
Vowing to fight for every delegate to the Democratic National Convention, Bernie Sanders urged supporters who crowded Rutgers University’s basketball arena in Piscataway on Sunday afternoon to set a record for voter turnout on June 7. “But, I do agree with Bernie Sanders on one thing: the income gap in this country is a major problem and I agree (with certain exceptions) that those that manage capital, as well as many CEOs, are ridiculously overpaid”, Icahn said in a statement posted to his website.
“Carl Icahn and Donald Trump, you guys are not going to get it all”, Sanders told the crowd, which included about 100 members of Unite HERE Local 54, the casino workers union which has endorsed Sanders, and which has suffered thousands of layoffs from casino closures.
Sanders will be the first presidential candidate to speak in Caras Park, but he is not the first to visit Missoula. “We saw a MI miracle and IN no one expected”. “He’s not going to give up until the end and we’re really going to be behind him all the way”.
Sanders has outlined an agenda to address poverty in America, reverse climate chance and end the corruption that has engulfed the nation’s political system.
“It’s not surprising that he’s coming here, where he can tap into homeowners that may feel frustrated – who have experienced foreclosure and had to short sell their homes”, Rosenhall said.
On her way to college next year, Martinez said Sanders’ message resonates with her.
“I think he’s got a path to victory but it’s a narrow path to victory”, Wisniewski said. She also argued that Sanders has shown momentum and polls well against Trump. “He’s not diplomatic enough”, she said. “What’s the solution to corporate media?” she asked.
“I grew up in this area”, she said “I see what changes need to be done to elevate the quality of life that everyone needs to have”.
