Organizations representing the LGBT community including HRC, LPAC and California Equality have endorsed her and those fighting climate change like the League of Conservation Voters have endorsed her. They all did this because they know Hillary. “Why is her campaign dissing the Big Apple?” Instead, Cruz dominated. His 48,000 votes were the most ever cast for a winning Republican candidate in the state’s history, though it should be noted that the last two winners of the state’s caucus, Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum, immediately floundered.

That realization was settling in Tuesday with a party hierarchy that has united nearly unanimously behind her candidacy – many on the assumption that the former secretary of state had practically a clear shot at becoming the Democratic standard-bearer.
Clinton has been talking about the Flint water issue on the campaign trail and in debates.
AUSTIN, TX-After a close race in Iowa and with Super Tuesday fast-approaching, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are now shifting gears and focusing their campaigns on Texas. It would also give him an enormous public and media boost and dispel doubts about his electability. In politics a win by one vote is still a win. The self-declared democratic socialist has ignited a passionate following among voters with his call to improve income inequality. Let’s do the math first.
According to the third day of results from a UMass Lowell/7News tracking poll, Trump leads his closest GOP presidential rival by 24 points, while Sanders holds a 29-point lead over Democratic hopeful Hillary Clinton. That totals out to about 21 delegates. Parker could not confirm whether Santorum is considering abandoning his bid altogether after finishing 11th out of 12 candidates in the Iowa caucus, saying only, “I’m hopeful to get the tour cranked back up soon”. “The way Democrats win elections is when there is a large voter turnout …” The Derry high schooler said she knows friends who like Sanders and his proposal for free tuition at colleges, but she considers it “not realistic”.
All are issues important to black voters, who will make up a majority of the Democratic electorate in South Carolina’s February 27 primary.
To be sure, Clinton is not without advantages in the state.
Sanders said that despite being considered as a fringe candidate during the early days of the campaign, he and his team managed to go toe-to-toe with Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton. Except that this analogy fails when it comes to the question of ultimate payoff.
She also acknowledged that it isn’t easy to talk about herself rather than stories she hears from people she meets at events to convey the things she cares about and that touch her personally.
But the narrowness of Clinton’s margin over the senator from Vermont, who had been trailing by 30 points in polls as recently as November, came as a surprise to many of her backers.
“The political revolution is here and it’s started in Iowa”, she declared. “We’ve tried to be very accommodating, but we have agreed with everything they have asked us to do”.

She also pushed back on charges by Sanders and his allies that she can not be trusted to regulate Wall Street because of the millions in speaking fees she made from the industry before announcing her presidential bid. She’s been endorsed by Gov. Maggie Hassan, Sen.
