The results of the nation’s first Western state caucus could be a wake-up call to the Hillary Clinton campaign that their efforts to secure the Democratic nomination could take longer than previously planned.

If the Vermont senator cannot quickly find a way to broaden his appeal to minorities and union members, last week’s 22-point rout of Clinton in New Hampshire could prove to be his campaign highlight. Just days later, they will compete in 11 states on Super Tuesday – March 1. For example, the report questioned how numerous CBS questionnaires were completed in Spanish, in a state where “35 percent” of Nevada voters are “foreign born”.
“[In South Carolina] there’s a large black population and she does very well among African-Americans”, Dr. Brent Nelsen, a political science professor at Furman University, said. Nevada’s result appeared to support that view.
“This is your win”, Mrs Clinton said in a tweet, thanking supporters for her victory.
In a Fox News poll shortly before the Iowa caucus, Clinton only led by 12 points over Sanders. “What we learned today is Hillary Clinton’s firewall with Latino voters is a myth”, Arturo Carmona, deputy political director for Bernie 2016, said in a statement. But Clinton doesn’t have to worry about delegate math just yet, because she’s just won an important victory that makes clear she’s still the frontrunner in this campaign. Ted Cruz led slightly among those who cared most about a candidate sharing their beliefs, Trump led slightly among those who said they were born-again Christians.
Maybe Sanders won the majority of Latinos in Nevada. She has won the first two caucus states, Iowa and Nevada.
And Sanders assured viewers Sunday, he is not to be counted out yet in the nomination contest.
Then the campaign moves into a trove of diverse, delegate-rich Southern states that are also considered favorable terrain for Clinton. But Sanders has emphasized his family’s immigrant roots here in ads and on the campaign trail, noting that his father was a Polish immigrant to America who originally spoke little English. In January, Hillary raised $13.2 million from individual donors and had $32.9 million on hand.
Clinton said that the country needs a president who can address more than a single issue, most likely a jab at Sanders and the claim that he has too narrow of a focus in his campaign.
The surveys were conducted for The Associated Press and the television networks by Edison Research as Republican voters left their polling places at 35 randomly selected sites in SC and as Democratic voters arrived at 25 randomly selected caucus sites in Nevada. “She’s got more experience”.
“I saw a TV ad and thought it was me, but it turns out it was Secretary Clinton in the ad”, he said.

The significant drop in support for presidential candidate Hillary Clinton shows that she is not the best candidate for office. Clinton Clinton pulled out a victory in Nevada’s caucuses on Saturday. And I think that you can see that, you can see the difference in the organization on the ground.
