Bartmann, cited new polling showing Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont
nearly tied with the Hillary Clinton, eroding the 30-point lead the
former secretary of state held at the end of last year. Bartmann and

Democratic socialist, is too far to the left to win against a Republican
in the Nov. 8 presidential election.
"We cannot afford to lose the White House," Bartmann wrote in the email, seen by Reuters.
