In a mathematical squeeze to make up ground in the Democratic
presidential race, Bernie Sanders is preparing to ratchet up his attacks
on Hillary Clinton ahead of a New York showdown that could establish
how easily the party can pull itself back together for the general
election.
The Empire State’s April 19 primary looms as potentially
determinative: A win by Clinton, who is favored, would further narrow
Sanders’s path, while a loss in the state she represented as a senator
would embarrass her and hand Sanders a rationale to continue campaigning
until the final votes are cast in June.
Clinton had a lead of roughly 300 in pledged delegates, but Sanders
narrowed the gap Saturday with a sweep of three Western caucuses. In one
of the most successful days of his campaign, the senator from Vermont
easily won in Alaska, Hawaii and Washington state.
