“Sanders, by ignoring the regular procedure and ramming through what they wanted to do”, he said. “And the name of the game is how many delegates you have, right?”

Speaking at a rally in California late Tuesday, Sanders was defiant that he would remain in the race despite the “steep hill” he faced. Unfortunately, many of Sanders’ supporters getting in on the fun are doing precisely what the Democratic Party is anxious about: directing their anger at Hillary and dividing the party rather than focusing on the TRUE threat to the Democrats, Donald Trump.
The state Democratic Party filed a formal complaint accusing Sanders of inciting “actual violence” at the convention.
“Hillary Clinton’s seemingly pathological need to mislead voters, her reckless conduct as secretary of state now under FBI investigation, and cronyism at her family foundation have alienated large swathes of voters, including many in her own party”, Priebus added. Kentucky is Clinton’s only victory this month, a far cry from her strong finish in April when she captured several states in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast.
“There is no way that I won’t be”, said Clinton, who is 90 delegates short of clinching the nomination, though Sanders continues to win contests and has vowed to march on to the Democratic convention in July.
“I’m confident that Bernie will be supportive if Hillary wins, which the numbers indicate will happen”, Biden said.
Trump was competing in the sole GOP contest in OR, unopposed as he was poised to pad his lock on the Republican nomination. He didn’t get them in OR and Kentucky, and as the delegates still up for grabs get fewer and fewer, Bernie’s chances of winning enough of them to stop Clinton from reaching the 2,383 she needs to secure the nomination outright are fading fast. They’re anxious that as the primary process nears its end, Sanders may resist the graceful exit that Democrats expect of him and instead heed advisers and supporters pressing him to maintain the fight, perhaps all the way to the Democratic convention in Philadelphia in July. Welch says. “We’ve got to keep going on and keep our eye on the prize”. And he’s optimistic that Sanders and Clinton will join together for the fall campaign.
Mrs Clinton campaigned in Kentucky on Sunday and Monday in an effort to halt Mr Sanders’ momentum after his recent victories in IN and West Virginia.

Nearing the end of a long primary slog, the two Democratic candidates are preparing for June 7 primaries in California, New Jersey and four other states and then the District of Columbia primary on June 14. While unlikely, Bernie Sanders is holding out for a miracle. Let Bernie run the race. Under the California sun in San Jose, Sanders made his case for the White House.
