Sanders, campaigning in California ahead of the Golden State’s June 7 primary, told AP he expected the party’s July 25-28 convention in Philadelphia to be decidedly unconventional.

Donald Trump ran away with the Republican vote in Washington state’s presidential primary.
The Democratic presidential candidate said he was taken out of context.
The minute-long ad features various clips from Clinton on the campaign trail, where she rails against the NRA, the “gun lobby” and America’s gun culture.
New Mexico has a large Hispanic population and polls show the demographic is mostly opposed to Trump in large part because of his positions on immigration. “I hope Secretary Clinton reconsiders her unfortunate decision to back away from her commitment to debate”, says Sanders, adding Clinton should not be “so presumptuous about thinking that she is a certain victor”.
But so much of what Trump says he will change if he is elected president isn’t going to happen.
Anti-Trump protestors and police clashed outside the Albuquerque convention center on Tuesday when protestors tried to storm the center, calling for an end to the Trump rally.
Police in Albuquerque said on Twitter late Tuesday that no protester outside the Trump event had been arrested.
Protesters broke through police barricades, lit fires and threw rocks at the city’s convention center, smashing one door.
But how much of a factor will Clinton and Trump’s high unfavorables play in the election’s outcome?
Warren also criticized Trump for saying in a Reuters interview last week that the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial oversight law, enacted in response to the crisis, made it hard for bankers to operate.
There were no delegates at stake in the Democratic primary.
Clinton and Sanders both picked up 27 delegates in Kentucky and one remaining delegate will be allocated in the sixth congressional district, which includes Frankfort and Lexington.
The former socialist mayor of Burlington claims he can still win the nomination – despite Clinton being on the doorstep of securing the 2,383 delegates needed to clinch. Clinton on Monday turned down an invitation by Fox News to debate Sanders in California despite having agreed previously to a May debate. Her campaign said Clinton’s time would be better spent meeting directly with California voters.
“County boards of elections will convene at 9 a.m. local time on Thurs [day], May 26 to conduct the recanvass”, Grimes tweeted. The rest of the delegates the contenders earn via the primary and caucus election process.
