2/23/2016
We are in the midst of a stretch where 27 states will vote or caucus as part of the Democratic primary, with over 2,000 delegates up for grabs. Its no exaggeration to say this is the most important stretch of our campaign.
Secretary Clintons supporters are responding: her campaign is holding at least a dozen high-dollar fundraisers this week, including one last night where some donors paid $27,000 to attend. And one of her Wall Street-funded super PACs has spent millions of dollars to influence a number of the upcoming primaries.
Theyre responding this way because we have pulled within a few points in the national polls and ended up winning the Latino vote in Nevada. If we can keep it up, we are going to win. But we cant stop. Not now. Not when we are so close and with so much on the line. Thats why I need to ask all of my supporters today:
Can I count on you to contribute to our political revolution? Supporters like you are stepping up in record numbers, and if you add your contribution today, we are going to win this election.
Yes, Wall Street has enormous economic and political power. Yes, Wall Street has made HUGE contributions to the Clinton campaign and their super PACs. Yes, they have an endless surplus of money.
But we have something they dont have. And that is millions of working families standing together and demanding change. If we keep moving forward together, we are going to win.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders
