y the time the polls closed in Michigan last night, the corporate media had written us off. The political establishment was trying to get us out of the race, and the Clinton campaign was eager to "wrap up" the primary as soon as possible.
But the people of Michigan had other ideas. Last night our political revolution scored "one of the greatest upsets in modern political history," and we’re seeing the same kind of come-from-behind momentum all across America.
Next Tuesday is the most important night for our campaign to date. Five large states vote, and we have all the momentum. And what we’ve shown is that when we come together, we have what it takes to overcome what was once thought to be an inevitable campaign.
The financial and political elite of this country are going to throw everything they have at us this week. The stakes are too high for them. I need your continued support if we’re going to be able to fight back and win.
This is going to be a long, hard fight. And we’ve only done as well as we have because millions of people have come together to say they’ve had ENOUGH of the billionaire class buying elections in this country.
If we continue to fight, and if you continue to contribute, we are going to win.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders
