Clinton appeals to Nevada Latinos in emotional ad

"Sanders wasn't really a Democrat until he chose to run for president". It's crucial in a state like Nevada, where she's neck-and-neck with Sanders ahead of Saturday's caucuses. And at a town hall event in Las Vegas, Sanders sought to lock in increasing support among female voters, saying he considered himself a committed feminist and had once been declared an "honorary woman" by feminist icon Gloria Steinem.

For security reasons, the campaign is asking participants not to bring bags and to limit personal items.

For about an hour each, both candidates focused on a wide variety of issues, with much of the time discussing the economy and the Latino community in an effort to sway registered Democrats before the Nevada caucus Saturday. Sanders has tried to close that gap and has earned endorsements from three members of the State House of Representatives, including Rep. Justin Bamberg, who had previously endorsed Clinton.

He said that he considered Obama a friend, but it was natural for a sitting lawmaker to have differences with a president with whom he agreed on many other things.

Clinton beckons the girl to her side while the audience claps. Both candidates held similar views on parts of their immigration proposals and repeated views to provide paths to citizenship for immigrants in the country illegally; they also promise to use executive powers if Congress didn't act.

Clinton is hoping to use a win in Nevada as a springboard into races in SC on February 27 and a slate of Southern primaries on Super Tuesday on March 1, where she's favored because of her strength among African-Americans.

And one MoveOn.org petition, declaring that "race for the Democratic Party nomination should be decided by who gets the most votes, and not who has the most support from party insiders", asks superdelegates to "pledge to back the will of the voters".

"We are doing well with young people, we are doing increasingly well with young African Americans, young Latinos", Sanders said. Bernie Sanders and Former Secretary of State Clinton, Sanders has failed to demonstrate why voters should cast their votes for him and thereby risk losing the general election to the GOP in November.

"Generally, people are more in the middle, and certainly in Ohio", Framer said. Leading up to the primaries season, all nationwide polls showed that Clinton had at least 35-point lead on Sanders.
