Sanders to back Clinton at event next week, NY Times reports

But he may begin campaigning with Clinton as soon as next week.

Others positions reflect the two candidates’ shared goals, including tougher regulation of Wall Street, increased spending on infrastructure and steps to make college more affordable. Still, Clinton will have more delegates in attendance.

A Field poll released Thursday showed more than half of California Democrats, 53%, wanted Sanders to end his holdout and throw his support behind Clinton. Whether they want to admit it or not, the vast majority of Sanders supporters plan on supporting Clinton in November.

In a closed-door meeting with House Democrats on Wednesday, lawmakers booed Sanders after he made comments dismissing the importance of the 2016 general election, according to Politico. Other names suggested by Trump’s supporters include others now being vetted, as well as a few candidates Trump defeated in the primaries and caucuses earlier this year.

Thus far, Clinton’s campaign has buried the GOP nominee in fundraising and ad spending.

The AP on Wednesday said the Clinton and Sanders camps were discussing an endorsement event in the Granite State, the site of Sanders’ first primary win. Elizabeth Warren of MA stepped in to unify the party behind Clinton. “Hillary Clinton and her campaign have handled him very well”.

“T$3 he Vermonter and his aides turned their attention to the Democratic platform, launching a spirited fight to move the document to the left”, reports MSNBC.com. “I want us to stop making it harder for us to win and start making it easier for us to win”, he said.

Hillary Clinton holds a wide 60%-30% advantage over Trump among young voters (ages 18-29). While this is not ideal for Clinton, both voting cohorts do agree when it comes to their opinion of Donald Trump. Blacks (91%-7%) overwhelmingly support Clinton over Trump. Trump only did significantly better with voters on the issue of reducing the influence of special interests. Trump has been a controversial opponent and many Democrats are in fear of the possibility of being elected.

Among white voters, there is a clear divide in support by level of educational attainment.

The poll included 274 Hispanic registered voters with a margin of error of 6.7 percentage points. “That’s what 13 million voters wanted to see happen”. In 2008, Obama was ahead of Sen.

“They’re in the final stages of negotiating an agreement between the two campaigns”. Newkirk said that while Democracy Spring will “generally try to communicate with law enforcement and to respond if they reach out, we don’t generally negotiate” the particulars of planned protests.

“I think the system has many, many flaws, but we knew what we were getting into”, Sanders said, referring to his doubts about Clinton’s fair winning of the nomination.

Additionally, a plurality of Sanders primary voters who are now supporting Clinton say that their general election vote has more to do with supporting Clinton than opposing Trump.

Primary differences persisting into the summer of an election year are nothing new.

As David Corn at Mother Jones wrote on July 1st, “On Tuesday, Sanders told USA Today that he was preparing for a clash at the Democratic convention next month-that is, if the party does not embrace his more progressive stances on the minimum wage, trade, and climate change”.
