Bernie Sanders is still winning
Bernie Sanders did not allow last Saturday’s South Carolina loss to keep him down. He came back and won Kansas and Nebraska. Hillary Clinton won Louisiana.
Politico reports the following.
Bernie Sanders stayed alive on Saturday, but it will take a dramatic reversal of political fortunes for him to overtake Hillary Clinton.
Sanders scored wins in the Kansas and Nebraska caucuses, riding support among the state’s largely white electorates to win by a comfortable margin in both states. But Clinton won overwhelmingly in Louisiana, with Sanders again unable to compete in a state with a large bloc of non-white voters.
The problem with a draw for Sanders, however, is that he started Saturday in a deep hole to Clinton, having secured 432 delegates to her 1,066. It takes 2,383 delegates to win the Democratic nomination. On Saturday, 109 delegates were up for grabs, and given Clinton’s projected margin of victory in Louisiana, she and Sanders will take home similar shares of that total.
Bernie Sanders has a lot of ground to make up. If his revolution materializes then, he has the time for it to occur. Today showed that irrespective of the talking heads touting his demise, it is likely he will be campaigning to the end.
