Clinton, Sanders target millennials
Mr Trump, often described as racist by Mrs Clinton, tried to turn the tables at a rally in Waukesha, Wisconsin.
“Hillary Clinton can’t win without New Hampshire and she can’t win without millennials. It means students won’t be leaving college with outrageous amount of student debt”.
“Bernie’s campaign energized so many young people”, Clinton acknowledged to the crowd.
Machado says Trump humiliated her by inviting reporters to her gym sessions and calling her “Miss Piggy”.
“We should and we will make public colleges tuition-free for families earning less than $125,000 a year”, Clinton said.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Trump should have been better prepared and he recommended that the candidate work harder with skilled coaches.
Sanders shouldered most of the policy burden in their townhall forum and promised to work with “President Clinton” to get his left-wing policy proposals passed. The campaign said that hundreds of supporters were turned away because the venue had reached capacity. Bernie Sanders pledged to rein in rising college costs during a forum Thursday at the University of New Hampshire. Audience members were given placards with the website, Iwillvote.com, which disseminates voter registration information.
The two former political foes of the Democratic presidential nominee hold distinct but distinctly important appeals to voters where Clinton has significant weaknesses.
Clinton’s campaign plans to have popular surrogates, including Obama, first lady Michelle Obama and Sanders make her case. “Donald Trump is going to prepare for debates the way Donald Trump prepares for debates”.
Sanders nodded and smiled as she spoke, and she smiled as he riffed on favorite themes from his primary, including the role of special interests in politics. “They’re haunted by Ralph Nader”.
Both candidates were putting a renewed focus on facetime with voters in the most competitive states during the lull between the first debate and the next major campaign showdown: the vice presidential debate on Tuesday. But public opinion surveys indicate that Clinton’s lead over GOP nominee Donald Trump among millennials is not so overwhelming.
Before the Democratic National Convention in July, Clinton and Sanders’ came together to hammer out a plan on college affordability that bridged the gap between the plans they ran on during the primary. “Sanders”, state party chairman Raymond Buckley told USA Today.
Clinton is already getting the support of nine in 10 black voters, according to the latest ABC News-Washington Post poll. “Sanders”, he said. “It’s a very deep and personal relationship”.
“They’ve shown they have the civic muscle to get things done”, said Allegra Chapman, director of voting and elections at Common Cause, a nonpartisan civic engagement group.
The 2016 election marks in the first in which millennials are the largest generation among US adults, having surpassed baby boomers during the last four years. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) greet supporters during a campaign rally at University of New Hampshire on September 28, 2016 in Durham, New Hampshire. “That’s the message we’ve got to get across”. The debate “gave everyone a big vote of confidence”, said Representative Tim Ryan of Ohio.
Clinton and other Democrats were hoping voters wouldn’t forget. Gore received 266 Electoral College votes, four shy of the 270 needed.
“He and his family have contributed many many millions of dollars to people in need throughout the state of Vermont”, Sanders said when honoring Pomerleau past year.
Third-party candidates remain a threat because of the nature of the race, D’Allesandro said. “They believe that even though the economy has improved, their status in life hasn’t changed”. As he’s campaigned across the country, the longtime independent politician has become a critic of third-party candidates, warning voters that it’s not the year for a protest vote.
In an editorial, the newspaper’s editorial board said Hillary Clinton’s flaws fade compared with Donald Trump’s and her approach to governing is mature and rational.
