In news from the campaign trail, Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has endorsed former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, while speaking Tuesday in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
Sen. Bernie Sanders: “She will be the Democratic nominee for president, and I intend to do everything I can to make certain she will be the next president of the United States.”
Sanders’ supporters have fought in recent weeks to have initiatives the senator championed in his campaign added to the Democratic platform. But both candidates said that with the election less than four months away, the most important thing was to unify the party around defeating presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
