2,000 pack Reno Ballroom to hear Sen. Bernie Sanders

[cal04]

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders returned to Reno on Sunday to spread his populist message as the campaign increases its presence in Nevada.

The Vermont senator held several events throughout the day including speaking to union leaders in Sparks, a meeting with seniors, a meeting with rural voters Sunday evening and a rally at the Reno Ballroom that drew around 2,000 people.

“Right wing republicans win elections when people don’t vote, when they turn off from politics,” he said. “Progressives win when there is a large voter turnout and when people know what’s going on.”

The crowd was excited for Sanders’ message, which calls for taxing the wealthy, increasing the minimum wage to $15 per hour, single-payer healthcare, free tuition at public universities and a major criminal justice system overhaul amongst other reforms.
