Hillary Clinton campaigns with casino workers, guests on Strip

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton today kicked off a final round of campaigning and personal appeals to Nevadans ahead of the caucus.


At stops bookending a rally at a local union hall, Clinton mingled with Strip workers, met a black small-business owner and played soccer with young Hispanic children. Many of the community members she met with belong to key demographics that both Clinton and her opponent, Vermont. Sen Bernie Sanders, hope to win over next Saturday.

A win in Nevada's caucuses, the next Democratic contest, is projected to be crucial for both Clinton and Sanders.

This morning, Clinton greeted workers at Harrah’s in an employee cafeteria, urging them to turn out to caucus for her.

"Saturday we need you to caucus," Clinton told the workers. "That's what will make a difference."

One of the workers called out, "We will be there."

Strip workers on shift Saturday will have a chance to caucus at one of six at-large caucus sites, one of which will be at Harrah's.

Good for her, she connects with union workers. I just wonder, did she masquerade as a union worker? George II Feb 2016 #2

That would be cool! The article says that she "successfully blocked a goal"!
