Bernie Sanders to Tour Midwest Battleground States
Sanders to hold rallies in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania to highlight Democrats’ path to victory in 2020
WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders will visit battleground states in the Midwest on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Sanders will hold rallies in Madison, Wisconsin, Warren, Michigan and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He will also make additional stops in Indiana and Ohio.
The tour will emphasize that Democrats’ clearest and strongest path to victory in 2020 runs through the upper Midwest — and that Bernie Sanders is by far the best-positioned candidate to win these states and defeat Donald Trump. At rallies in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania — three states that flipped and voted for Donald Trump in 2016 — Sanders will deliver a message focused on fighting against unfair trade deals that undermine workers wages and enrich CEOs, rebuilding and strengthening unions and guaranteeing health care as a right to all with Medicare for All.

Sander’s liberal extremist message is exactly what the Democratic party does NOT need. It will, if embraced by enough Democrats, hand the next election, and quite possibly our way of life, to the extreme conservatives who currently run the GOP.
