Sen. Bernie Sanders endorsed Hillary Clinton and said that he will do “everything I can to make certain” she wins the 2016 presidential election.
“Secretary Clinton has won the Democratic nominating process and I congratulate her for that,” Sanders said, after being interrupted by applause.
“I have come here to make it as clear as possible as to why I am endorsing Hillary Clinton and why she must become our next president,” Sanders said.
Today’s event marks their first joint general election campaign event.
Sanders started his speech by thanking the millions of Americans who voted for him during the Democratic primary and the small donations he received to fund his campaign.
“Together we have begun a political revolution to transform America and that revolution continues!” he said with Clinton at his side. “Together we will continue to fight for a government that represents all of us and not just the one percent.”
