Mer eller mindre alla seriösa tidningar och etermedier såg beslutet från DNC:s Rules and Bylaws Committee som slutet för Hillarys presidentkampanj.
Kompromissen att godkänna både Floridas och Michigans delegationer, men med bara en halv röst per delegat, gjorde det omöjligt för Clinton att vinna den totala röstandelen. Inte ens gårdagens stora vinst i Puerto Rico lyckades vända på siffrorna. Nu spekulerar fler och fler om att HRC kommer att att avsluta sin kampanj efter primärvalen i morgon, hemma i New York. Så här skriver Politico:
Members of Hillary Clinton’s advance staff received calls and emails this evening from headquarters summoning them to New York City Tuesday night, and telling them their roles on the campaign are ending, two Clinton staffers tell my colleague Amie Parnes.
The advance staffers — most of them now in Puerto Rico, South Dakota, and Montana — are being given the options of going to New York for a final day Tuesday, or going home, the aides said. The move is a sign that the campaign is beginning to shed — at least — some of its staff. The advance staff is responsible for arranging the candidate’s events around the country.
With the future of her campaign in doubt, Clinton hasn’t announced her plans for the final election night of the primary cycle or beyond, but the aides said she would stage her election night event in New York City. Her entourage is currently expected to wake up Tuesday in New York and to arrive in Washington, D.C. Tuesday night.
