In South Carolina, which holds its primary on February 27, Clinton is far ahead of Sanders there in both polls (by 29.5 points in the RealClearPolitics average) and prediction markets (83% to 17%, according to PredictWise).
Clinton told residents in a Baptist church in Flint that what was happening to the city was “immoral” and demanded that Congress approve $200 million in emergency aid to address the community’s battle with lead-contaminated water. She said that regardless of a prospective voters’ political leaning, citizens turn out to listen to Republican and Democratic candidates alike.
“Every issue that I care about, I know is something that the women I speak to, of all ages, also care about”, Clinton said.
In the closing days before Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary, Hillary Clinton has been leaning heavily on feminism to make a case against her opponent Bernie Sanders.
It has ignited significant debates on college campuses across America – should young, women voters support Clinton because of her gender? If you steal this, I’m not even gonna tell anybody that I said this.
Clinton couldn’t refrain from taking a shot at what she perceives to be a roadblock to so many women – legislative policies, undoubtedly the ones pushed forward by Republicans.
New Hampshire is full of Clinton history.
The former president referred to reports that Mr Sanders had taken part in Democratic Party fundraising events where wealthy donors gave more than $30,000 a year each.
At a rally in a school Mr Clinton said his wife’s supporters had suffered “unbelievable personal attacks” on the internet from those of Mr Sanders.
When Hillary Clinton was asked Sunday on Meet The Press who her pick was for Super Bowl 50, her response was direct.
She continued to explain of the young-female Sanders” supporter: “When you’re young, you’re thinking “Where are the boys?’ the boys are with Bernie”.
Sanders has worked to boost his profile among black voters who make up more than half of the SC electorate.
Former President Bill Clinton, notably quiet until now, lashed out at Bernie Sanders on Sunday by accusing his supporters of sexism.

The margin for Clinton to pull off an upset in New Hampshire is small. “But if you look at Sanders he has been solid as concrete with regards to his passion for racial, social and economic justice”.
