Sanders says superdelegates should vote with their state

(Mar. 20, 2016 12:45 EST) — Presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders on Sunday said Democratic superdelegates in states he’s won should not to break with their home voters and back rival Hillary Clinton at the party’s convention.
At the party’s convention in July, those party notables designated as “superdelegates” can vote for whomever they want regardless of who won their home state’s primary or caucus. Sanders is far behind Clinton in the total delegate count and would need support from as many of these individuals as possible to win the nomination.
