Bernie Sanders wins Indiana Democratic presidential primary

Bernie Sanders also won, with 52 percent of the vote to Hillary Clinton’s 47 percent – but he only saw a net gain of less than a dozen delegates.

Bernie Sanders won in Indiana Tuesday with stronger support among groups that have helped Hillary Clinton win in other Democratic primaries, the NBC News Exit Poll indicates.

Two at-large alternate delegates that can be from anywhere in the state. Majorities of both Clinton voters and Sanders voters say the Democratic campaign has mostly energized the Democratic Party.

Clinton was joined at the meeting with community leaders by Reps.

Clinton told CNN on April 29 that she and Sanders “are going to talk” about his platform priorities. She now has a total of 2,224 delegates, or 93% of the 2,383 delegates needed to win. Wasserman Schultz has forwarded only three of 40 names the Sanders campaign recommended for the key committees while installing Clinton loyalists in leading roles.

“Right now, we are focused on the next five weeks of winning the Democratic nomination”. Over the course of the race, the campaign has reached out at some point to every superdelegate either in person, over the phone, by email, or a weekly newsletter, said the aide, who wasn’t authorized to speak publicly about internal operations.

The effort has yielded modest results. “Given that the republican race is essentially decided, in those places where there are open primaries Independent voters who might have been inclined to to participate in that more dynamic Republican race may now want to participate in the Democratic race”.

The lawsuit came after a Sanders staffer exploited a software error to improperly access confidential voter information collected by Clinton’s team. Marley said that Sanders asked for his support, to which he said he would if Sanders did well in the state’s caucus. Sanders doesn’t win the nomination, they want to influence the party platform during the convention. He added later, “I think it is good for the United States of America, good for the Democratic Party, to have a vigorous debate, to engage people in the political process”.

Marley is the exception to the rule.

“One of the issues that I know that is a concern to Guam is the earned income tax credit, which is very, very important for that state and I believe that they are”. But Sanders has vowed to stay in the race through the Democratic National Convention in July, and supporters of the two have engaged in spats on social media about whether he should drop out.

The presidential hopeful explains how he expects to win the nomination. Sanders said the chair of the Platform Committee also supports his rival, and that both individuals are “aggressive attack surrogates” for her on the campaign trail. He said he hopes there will be agreement on Sanders’ proposals, and the campaign has no plans to pursue a Kennedy-like strategy.

“It’s just words. It’s just another politician talking”, he said of her campaign promises.

Theoretically, Sanders could still catch up with Clinton in the pledged delegate count.
