Activists look to build on momentum of Sanders campaign

“We get nearly 14 million votes, we win 36, 37 states – others win none”.

“Guaranteed health care for all must be a uniform, national obligation that the Democratic Party makes a priority, not a vague concept dependent on the vagaries of which states will pass Medicaid expansion”.

Clinton, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, won the Iowa caucuses by a slim margin in February.

Out of 1,285 delegates to the convention, Clinton was originally allotted 704. He made sure to give props to both Sanders and Clinton, earning similar ovations from the crowd.

“To advance the goals that so resonated in Bernie Sander’s campaign, we need Hillary Clinton to win this election”, Sen.

“Now’s the time”, he said, indicating that the nomination battle is essentially over.

He also offered a warning: “You are going to have problems the likes of which you’ve never seen unless Donald Trump becomes your president”.

Several organizations said they are planning actions at this summer’s Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.

Donald Trump also slammed the latest effort by delegates to the Republican National Convention (RNC) next month to change party rules so they can vote for the candidate of their choice instead of who won their states in the primaries. He cited “voter suppression” and irregularities in states like New York, Arizona and Kentucky. But, hopefully I can continue to go the way we’re going, and this weekend we raised a lot of money.

Sue Dvorsky, a Clinton supporter, said she thinks the party is already unified. “When I am governor, the welcome mat will be out for those who want to come to New Hampshire”, he said, adding it doesn’t matter whether they are from Quebec or Syria.

Speaking at a theater at the Treasure Island hotel on the Las Vegas strip, Trump referred to “an insurgent group” trying to deny him delegates at the party’s July convention.

In an unprecedented move, the Washington State Democratic Party has endorsed Sen. Others loudly applauded the call for unity.

“I understand that any third name – because of the disconnect or the polarization of Trump and Clinton – any third name would be registering”, Johnson, 63, told USA TODAY’S Susan Page on Thursday.

Trump is leading in one Rasmussen poll, the one where they ask voters who they’d rather have a beer with – Trump leads Clinton, 45% to 37%.

Clinton and rival Sanders had almost equal numbers of delegates eligible to attend Saturday’s state convention in Des Moines (704 for Clinton and 700 for Sanders), but by the end of the day about 56 percent of the party activists gathered for their state convention were aligned behind Clinton. “This party will absolutely be working on the same things for November”.

One concern Warren highlighted was Trump University, which Warren said Trump created to “profit off other peoples’ pain” as the “fraudster in chief” while citing the billionaire’s lawyers’ action to block the release of taped testimony in an ongoing Trump University court case. “We need to unite all Democrats because we’re all built on the same ideals and we have the same beliefs and values and passions”. Here are the final eligibility numbers: 714 Clinton delegates and 571 Sanders delegates were seated for the state convention. Clinton also had 15 national delegates and two alternates elected at district conventions; Sanders had 14 national delegates and two alternates.
