Clinton racking up powerful backers in Wisconsin
Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, both hoping to win over Nevada’s African-American electorate ahead of this week’s presidential caucus, attended an aptly named house of worship on Sunday: Victory Missionary Baptist Church.
After extending condolences to Scalia’s family, Clinton emphasized President Barack Obama’s right and responsibility to appoint a new justice to the court and said the Senate has the responsibility to act on that appointee. “It is the most powerful nonviolent tool in a democratic society”, Lewis said.
As the visualization below shows, the moderators focused many of their questions on the candidates’ records, requiring the two onstage to engage directly with each other in spirited debate.

Senator Sanders is pushing a big, progressive agenda that is energizing a large group of voters who want to see change, while Secretary Clinton is arguing for numerous same reforms but with the added bonus of her experience as a Senator, First Lady, and Secretary of State. In South Carolina, 73 percent of black voters supported Clinton in the poll while just 26 percent supported Sanders. The state experienced a massive real estate bust and years of double-digit unemployment, and its gambling and construction industries have not returned to the success of their boom-time years. Sanders has relentlessly cast her dealings with Wall Street as an example of how the wealthy try to influence Washington, a message that has tapped into voter frustration. But he also noted the economic struggles in Nevada since the recession, saying “we have made great progress, but much more needs to be done”. “We do not have to have massive levels of income and wealth inequality”, said Sanders.
The Clinton campaign also released a new web video Saturday excerpting several of Sanders’ answers from the debate in which he pivoted to Wall Street when asked about another topic.

In a last ditch effort to gain supporters, Hillary Clinton is campaigning in the Las Vegas valley, making multiple stops including in Henderson.
