Bernie Sanders, who was in the race as a Democratic presidential candidate until last week, has expressed support for his former opponent Joe Biden. Sanders posted a video message on social media Monday night calling on all Americans to support Biden in his fight against President Donald Trump.
Sanders reported on Wednesday that he will end his presidential campaign. It is therefore almost certain that his rival Joe Biden will face the incumbent US President Donald Trump as a Democratic candidate.
The progressive politician has been lagging behind Biden, who was vice president under Barack Obama from 2009 to 2017. Sanders, 78, was particularly notable for his progressive pleas for accessible care and education.
Biden acknowledged after Sanders’ discontinuation of the campaign that its competitor has created a powerful move that is important to both the country and the future.
Sanders participated for the second time as a presidential candidate
The politician first took part in the Democratic primaries in 2016, but was then defeated by Hillary Clinton. She eventually lost to Republican Trump.
The United States presidential election is held on November 3. Billionaire Michael Bloomberg, Senator Elizabeth Warren and Mayor Pete Buttigieg have already stepped out of the race.
The Democratic presidential candidate will only be elected in a few months. The last votes will be cast on June 6. Although Sanders no longer takes part in the elections, he does leave his name on the electoral list. With the votes he gets, he hopes to influence the Democratic party.
