(Mar. 10, 2016 17:20 ET) — Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont spent Thursday talking to thousands of people in rallies across Florida in an effort to garner support before the state’s primary next week.

Mr. Sanders began his day in Miami and flew to Gainesville for a morning rally at the University of Florida. There, he told about 5,600 supporters that he would need their help to score another victory like the one he had in Michigan’s primary on Tuesday. He also continued to contrast his stances on trade with those of his rival, Hillary Clinton.
