Joe Biden continues to move toward securing the Democratic nomination following the results of more primary elections and public endorsements. This time, the former vice president gained the endorsement of his former rival, Senator Bernie Sanders.
ABC News reports that Sanders recently voiced his support for Joe Biden in the upcoming November elections. The Vermont Senator made a surprise appearance on Biden’s campaign livestream. Sanders invoked party unity as he made his announcement to endorse the former Vice President. “Today I’m asking all Americans, I’m asking every Democrat, I’m asking every Independent, I’m asking a lot of Republicans, to come together in this campaign to support your candidacy, which I endorse - to make certain we defeat somebody who I believe - and I’m speaking just for myself now - is the most dangerous president in the modern history of this country,” said Sanders.
Biden praised Sanders in response, further showing the good relationship between the two. “You don’t get enough credit, Bernie, for being the voice that forces us to take a hard look in the mirror and ask ourselves: “Have we done enough?” and we haven’t,” said Biden.
That is not the only surprise that was made during the campaign livestream as Biden revealed that he will be working closely with Sanders in forming six working groups focused on education, criminal justice, climate change, immigration, economy, and health care policies during the 2020 elections.
The two have also addressed the fact that they have differing opinions on certain policies. But Sanders hoped that the groups they will form together made of people from both campaigns will be able to produce solutions to the issues at hand.
At the same time, Biden won the Wisconsin primary, which took place a day after Sanders announced he will be bowing out of the race. The state was criticized for continuing to hold in-person voting at the polls in the midst of the pandemic, resulting in a legal battle that ultimately rejected state governor Tony Evers’ request. Based on the results, Biden will gain 50 pledged delegates, bringing his delegate count up to 1,273. He will need 1,991 delegates to secure the Democratic nomination.
