Sanders has ‘every chance’ to win, Clinton may stumble
Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders has “every chance” to beat his rival, Hillary Clinton, and be nominated by the party, an analyst says, despite the Vermont senator’s loss in four of the five states in the latest primaries.
As a “strong Sanders supporter,” the executive editor at OpEdNews.com, Rob Kall, told Press TV Wednesday that he was “sad but still hopeful.”
Apart from the state of Missouri, Clinton managed to beat Sanders in the other four, North Carolina, Florida, Illinois, and Ohio, in Tuesday’s primaries.
The former secretary of state currently has 1,139 delegates while her Democratic rival holds 825.
“Sanders has every chance to win and Hillary has every chance to make mistakes or get caught in the web of problems that she has created for herself,” Kall said, referring to the former first lady’s email controversy as well as corruption in the Clinton Foundation.
He also predicted that Sanders would win the rest of the primaries.
“It’s not over by a long shot and he is going to go all the way to the convention,” Kall concluded
Meanwhile, high-ranking Democratic Party leaders held a press conference Wednesday, expressing hope that the “mess” in the Republican race, with billionaire Donald Trump leading, could end to their advantage.
“We are gathered this morning to talk about what last night's results mean for the race going forward. Particularly, the mess going on in the Republican field," said Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. "They are in free fall. Let me give you the short version: Trump is the nominee for all intents and purposes. But the math overwhelmingly makes it impossible for any of the other candidates to take the nomination."
Top Democrats predicted that Trump’s nomination will give them the upper hand in the House of Representatives and the Senate.
"Donald Trump's nomination as the Republican presidential candidate seems all but assured and with it the end of the Republican Senate majority. Donald Trump won't make America great again, but he'll make the Republicans the minority again," said Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer. "We've all been alarmed by Trump's toxic and divisive rhetoric."
