Donations to Sen. Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign fell by almost a third in April to $25.8 million, the campaign said Sunday, marking the first time this year his fundraising dropped from one month to the next. So if Sanders sweeps a state, the superdelegates should vote for him – even if they personally prefer Clinton.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) vowed to take his fight for the Democratic presidential nomination all the way to the party’s convention in July, promising not to give up even if he continues to trail Hillary Clinton in pledged delegates. Superdelegates can vote for the candidate they prefer.
Clinton was the Secretary of State in the first term of the Obama Administration. Cruz especially has been given grudging praise for his organizational wizardry that has garnered him a large number of delegates who are pledged to Trump but are actually loyal to him.
And Supporters of Sanders and Trump gathered outside the school as Clinton spoke Sunday. However, there was also much confidence lost in Sanders from a recent interview with the New York Daily News.
Senior adviser Paul Manafort further telegraphed the message Sunday on CBS’ Face the Nation, saying that Mr Trump is looking to strengthen ties to “leaders of the Republican Party and various committees to help raise money for them”. “If I lose the nomination, and we’re here to do everything we can to win it, I will do everything I can to make sure that Donald Trump is not elected President Of The United States”.
Democratic White House aspirant Hillary Clinton today expressed concern over the foreign policy view of Republican presidential front runner Donald Trump.
“But what I found interesting is the fact that he was an independent and then to run this race he made a decision to be a Democrat. I can’t tell you one thing for me and another thing for Hillary Clinton”.
He adds: “With that being said, I think I’ll win anyway”. Yet Clinton also enjoys a significant lead in the pledged delegates earned through her statewide victories, with 1,645 pledged delegates to Sanders’ 1,318.
He received a series of backhanded compliments from Barack Obama at the White House Correspondents’ Association annual dinner on Saturday and is polling close to Clinton ahead of the IN primary on Tuesday. “It’s a sound bite”, Trump said. Campaign finance rules strictly discern between primary and general election fundraising – and CNN’s Jeff Zeleny reports that Team Clinton needs to refill its coffers for the preconvention stretch ahead.
Many pundits have noted that Sanders can still win even without securing the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination. “And we need to be sure that as we go forward in this campaign, we look out mostly for those left out and left behind”.
And every conversation included a question about whether a Trump presidency was within the realm of possibility.
On paid speeches and the new $20 bills: “If this material works well, I’m gonna use it at Goldman Sachs next year”. Clinton said she would stand up for marriage equality, women’s reproductive health rights and workers’ rights to organize. But the Republican front-runner says that he’ll use Sanders’ sound bite calling Clinton unqualified later in the campaign.
Karlyn Bowman, a public opinion analyst at the American Enterprise Institute, cautioned that both Trump and Clinton “have a problem with gender in this election”.

“She’s a strong person – she’s going to have to be able to take it”, Trump said.
