Bernie Sanders focuses on the issues, not votes, in Tuesday night speech
Despite having already lost three states to Hillary Clinton Tuesday night, Sen. Bernie Sanders continued to hit his campaign message hard in a speech to supporters in Phoenix, Arizona. He brushed off whether or not people wanted to vote for him and focused instead on the injustices of economic inequality, America's insufficient infrastructure, and the country's "broken criminal justice system." "This campaign is about thinking outside of the box, outside of the status quo," he said.
Clinton beat Sanders in Ohio, Florida, and North Carolina. Early results posted at the time of Sanders' speech showed him ahead in Missouri and behind in Illinois.
