“Sanders. I hope not President Sanders”, Chelsea Clinton said at a campaign event.

The political spotlight is heading to Flint, Michigan as CNN will host a debate between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders on March 6.

The party determined that Clinton lost.

CNN’s Jake Tapper asked Clinton about the implication from the Sanders campaign that Clinton changed her vote on a bankruptcy bill fifteen years ago as a senator.

The Sanders campaign is conducting its own review of the results.

“That’s what they offered”, Clinton said in response to the question.

Her campaign said it encouraged pro-Sanders college students to attend the meeting through the social media site Reddit as a way to reach out to the senator’s supporters.

Clinton said Sunday that she’d release the transcripts but that others, including 2016 White House rivals, must do the same and suggested that she’s being unfairly targeted, as she has in the past. “How it comes out is in the hands of the voters”, said Billy Shaheen, a veteran of multiple New Hampshire campaigns and the husband of Sen.

Chelsea Clinton was in the Twin Cities Wednesday fundraising for her mother, Hillary Clinton, ahead of Minnesota’s caucuses.

But Clinton has pressed the case that Sanders has a homefield advantage, because he comes from neighboring Vermont. “This debate is an opportunity to elevate the very serious issues facing the residents of Flint, and it’s also an opportunity to remind voters what Democratic leadership can do for the economy – so that everyone in America has a fair shot”. “Every day, you know, they’re attacking us in one way or the other”.

New Hampshire voters go to the polls for the nation’s first primary on Tuesday. “Absolutely not”, Sanders said Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation” when moderator John Dickerson asked him about the report. “Let’s – if this is now going to be a new standard, then it should apply to everybody and then I’ll be happy to look into it further”. Secretary Clinton won this state in 2008.

“When we began this campaign here in New Hampshire, we were 30 points down in the polls and she was much better known in this state than I was”.

Kasich is running close with Christie, Rubio and Jeb Bush in New Hampshire for support among moderate and more traditional Republican voters. “I think after last night, that’s over. I happen to share it”.
