Sanders expects close race in New Hampshire
Sanders’ strength with younger voters only heightens the threat he poses to what was once her decisive national lead.
Clinton has countered that Sanders’s political revolution is unrealistic, and pitched herself to voters at a rival event earlier that day as “a progressive that gets things done”. “I don’t have as much trust”.
Clinton’s top supporters in New Hampshire said the state had a history of unpredictability and expressed hope that a major organizing push in the final weekend would make a difference.
On Saturday, Clinton said during a town hall meeting in Henniker that her proposals to address college affordability and to build upon Obama’s health care law were superior to Sanders’ approach. But to rebut questions about trust, Clinton turned to people who have both worked with Sanders and endorsed her.
Clinton clearly appreciated the support from her former colleagues on Friday. Clinton was backed by almost 70 percent of those 65 and older. Debbie Stabenow and New Hampshire Sen.
“She’s the best alternative to Bernie”, said Danielle Adcock, 20, of Manchester, who supports Sanders.
She said that “President Sanders” had voted against such a measure.
He even outperforms Clinton in hypothetical general election matchups with Republicans, and is flush with cash from an unprecedented wave of more than 2.5 million small-dollar donations to his campaign. But a Washington Post/ABC News poll conducted in January suggests she may have cause for concerns there, too.
US Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, made a combined $153 million off paid speeches from 2001 to 2015, a report says.
“Hillary has been such an under-performing candidate that it gives him an opening”, said Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia Centre for Politics. I’ve always been guided by the same values. She also wanted to know why Clinton felt compelled to delete so many personal emails from her private account as secretary of state “everybody knows you can’t write 30,000 emails to your yoga instructor”. While they were flown into the state to back her bid, their message seemed aimed at a far broader audience. The shift in rhetoric may raise questions about who and what Clinton really is. Bernie Sanders, and the two argued on the debate stage over the issue Thursday night.
While Sanders is laser-focused on income inequality and the behavior of the financial sector, Clinton has struggled to define what her campaign is about at its core. The Christie campaign says the point of the story is about the serious responsibilities of the next president.
