Email from Mr. Sanders campaign.
Quote:
We just got word that we won our 19th state, taking the majority of the delegates in today's primary in West Virginia.

Every vote we earn and every delegate we secure sends an unmistakable message about the values we share, the country's support for the ideas of our campaign, and a rejection of Donald Trump and his values.

Now we're on to two more primaries next week in Kentucky and Oregon, where we also hope to do very well. So let's keep going.
Yes.

I am not sure if she will or he would accept, and better that Bernie challenges Hillary till the convention racking up victories and delegates.

“Bernie Sanders’s campaign is having an effect on Hillary Clinton’s policies,” said Steve McMahon, a Democratic political consultant from Purple Strategies. “From a progressive point of view, that’s exactly what was hoped for and that is exactly what is happening.”
Bernie is holding Hillary's feet to the fire, they don't dare ask Bernie to suspend his campaign and she will be forced to move to the left. Left to her own devices, she would rather go after the moderate Republican voters.

For the many millions out there that may not be aware of this due to the virtual blackout of this event by the Clintonista media, I am hereby making the following public service announcement.

Last night Bernie Sanders won the West Virginia Democratic primary by 15 points.

It's not mentioned at all on my yahoo homepage.

And the alleged left leaning Huffington Post has it buried deep in their bowels. .

In addition, it appears that due to the DNC's Soviet style Primary rules Bernie's landslide win will net him the same number of delegates as Hillary.

Looks like Bernie only tied Hillary for delegates in West Virginia when you count the Super Delegates.

Let's Hear It For Smoke Filled Rooms!

Harry Truman was picked by a smoke filled room and ended segregation in the Armed Forces and actually proposed a single payer plan once.

The "party" will ensure that only the candidate picked by the party Boss wins. The vote is only smoke and mirrors.
