Democratic Candidates in Key States Get Last-Minute Support from Sanders and Leading Democrats
In the final days before the 2022 midterm elections, U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders and his progressive allies are intensifying efforts to support Democratic candidates in crucial battleground states. As President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Barack Obama, and other prominent Democrats call on voters with urgent appeals to increase turnout, Sanders is on a 19-stop tour to energize his progressive base and encourage younger voters to head to the polls.
Describing these midterms as “the most consequential” of his lifetime, the Independent senator from Vermont warns of a strong Republican presence that could reshape future elections, impact climate policy, and influence the nation’s economic direction.
