CONCORD, NH – With two weeks until Election Day, President Joe Biden stopped in Concord Tuesday to talk up his
Bernie Sanders calls on Manchester supporters for the NHPrimary win.
U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) shared his vision for healthcare reform during a campaign stop at Boards and Brews on Monday afternoon.
Among Democratic candidates, primary voters believe Biden is most likeable, has the right experience, and has the best chance to win the general election, while Sanders is seen as the most progressive. Just over two-thirds of Republican primary voters would vote for Donald Trump if the primary were held today, while one in six would vote for John Kasich and very few would support William Weld.
The Brookside Congregational Church is at least 150 miles outside the U.S. Senate district Bernie Sanders hopes to retain through the general election Tuesday, but the once (and future?) presidential candidate made the trip for an event Sunday afternoon — with a pit stop at UNH-Durham — to encourage attendees to get others to vote.
“The Democrat party’s superdelegate system is extremely undemocratic and, in this case, it disenfranchises the votes of 40,000 Granite Staters,” says NHGOP Chair Jennifer Horn. “Gov. Hassan, Sen. Shaheen and Rep. Kuster have got to decide if they are to speak for the people of NH, or for Washington insiders.”
“If superdelegates all go for Clinton while the majority of voters go for Sanders, it would open up a civil war within the party. There’d be screaming and riots and demonstrations on the convention room floor. It would be a nightmare for the party leaders, a real mess,” says Andrew Smith.
On the eve of the primary election, Vermont senator Bernie Sanders continues to hold a double-digit lead over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, and Trump is also leading the GOP pack.
Saturday’s latest poll shows Democrats are leaning toward Sanders while Republicans are generally all over the place.
