Bernie Sanders prepares for the long haul
Bernie Sanders added to his delegate count on Tuesday night, but he ultimately lost to Hillary Clinton in Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, and Illinois. The Democratic candidates are currently tied in Missouri.
What does the future of the 2016 election hold for the senator from Vermont? The Sanders camp raised $42 million in February alone, and his team believes he still has a future on the campaign trail, according to Symone Sanders, press secretary for Bernie Sanders’ campaign (no relation).
“If we let the pundits and the talking heads tell us how to run this campaign, we would’ve gotten out of this race on day three,” says Ms. Sanders. “Senator Sanders is in this to win this. There is a path to the nomination, and that’s what we intend to do — we’re not going to do Secretary Clinton any favors.”
Though he’s down overall, Ms. Sanders says the Bernie camp is looking toward Arizona, Idaho, Utah, Alaska, Hawaii and Washington state, where voters will cast their ballots next week.
“We knew that the early map favored Secretary Clinton, and we expect that last night was the high-water mark for her delegate lead,” Ms. Sanders says. “We’re still in this, and this is going to be a very long nominating contest.”
Ms. Sanders says that the senator will start “racking up real wins” in the next phase of the nominating contest.
“The fight is going to roll on,” she says.
