Bernie Sanders

How weird has the 2016 election been? Let us count the ways...

Sanders said Friday morning he will vote for Hillary Clinton in November because beating Donald Trump is most important. But he said he's focused on the Democratic Party platform.

Bernie Sanders has raised at least $209 million from small donors online while shunning big money players. Now, Democrats hope Sanders will share his fundraising list with down-ballot candidates.

The results in the nation's capital bring to a close her fight with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. The two met for about 90 minutes Tuesday in what both campaigns called a "positive discussion."

Lucy Flores was among the first endorsements Sanders made earlier this year, and his fundraising plea helped the former Nevada legislator raise over $600,000 for her competitive Democratic primary.

The progressive hero is the latest Democrat to fall in line behind Clinton after she clinched the requisite number of delegates earlier this week over rival Bernie Sanders.

Clinton said she is looking forward to working with Bernie Sanders "during the campaign and then after the inauguration," as the rivals figure out how to unify.

Hillary Clinton secured her status as presumptive nominee and took home California. Bernie Sanders said he will stay in the fight. And Donald Trump gave a scripted speech — an unusual move for him.

Six states are voting in the last major primary contest of 2016: New Jersey, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana and California.

Clinton is the first woman ever to head a major-party ticket in this country. She now has the 2,383 delegate commitments necessary to become the presumptive nominee, according to The Associated Press.

Bernie Sanders didn't acknowledge that The Associated Press declared Hillary Clinton the presumptive Democratic nominee for president. But some of his supporters did.

Eight years ago, on the night Barack Obama was declared the "presumptive nominee," Hillary Clinton held out. But four days later, she conceded. Will Bernie Sanders come around to the same reality?
