Sanders crushes Clinton in Alaska and Washington Democratic caucuses

Bernie Sanders won overwhelming victories in Washington state and Alaska on Saturday, narrowing Hillary Clinton’s still significant lead in the race for delegates to win the Democratic nomination for president.

Sanders defeated Clinton in Washington’s caucuses 76% to 31% and 79% to 21% in Alaska’s, with about 31% and 38% of the states’ precincts reporting.

“We knew from day one we were going to have a hard time politically in the deep south, that is a conservative part of the country,” Sanders told supporters in Madison, Wisconsin “But we knew things were going to improve as we head west.”

“We are making significant inroads in Secretary Clinton’s lead,” he said. “We have a path toward victory.”

Beautiful supporter made ad that illustrates what this election is all about



Such a moving and passionate speech. You can hear the authenticity and the real care he has for this country and the people. I am so lucky to have had the chance to vote for him and to volunteer for his campaign even though we lost here in GA.
