## Resource

Bernie Sanders is rallying progressive candidates nationwide, arguing that voters crave bold leadership—even when outspent. He dismisses critics who fear his policies are too radical, citing polling that proves public support for his agenda. In Vermont, he’s open to endorsing Democratic gubernatorial primary winner Amanda Janoo. Sanders also warns of a looming threat to democracy: efforts to sabotage mail-in voting and intimidate voters on Election Day, calling these moves outrageous attempts to entrench Republican power.
