Bernie: I’m In Until The Last Vote Is Counted

Via Politico:

Bernie Sanders is here to stay. The Democratic presidential nominee said in an interview with NPR that his campaign will continue until June 14, even if the odds in terms of delegates are stacked against him.

“Well, we’re going to stay in until the last vote is counted, and that will be in the primary in Washington, D.C.,” Sanders told “Morning Edition” host Steve Inskeep in an interview from Elizabeth, Indiana, which occurred on Wednesday and aired Thursday morning.

Sanders said every state “should have a right to cast a vote as to who they want to see as president,” pointing specifically to California, which will award 546 delegates to the Democratic winner. He also said his campaign has a chance in West Virginia, Oregon and other states.

“We think we have a path towards victory. Admittedly, it is a narrow path, but when I started this campaign we were 60 points behind Secretary Clinton,” Sanders said. “Yesterday, here, in early May, we won in Indiana. … I think we’ve got some more good victories coming. So we are in this race until the very last vote is cast.”

Sanders went on to make his case for flipping superdelegates.
