2016 US Presidential Election - Primary in Washington D.C Tuesday June 14,2016

Democrat Hillary Clinton won the District of Columbia primary on Tuesday June 14,2016, capturing the party's last presidential nominating contest as Democrats turn their focus to the November 8 election against presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump

Bernie Sanders is under pressure to give up his campaign and help unite the party. But the US senator from Vermont has vowed to continue to July's convention to gain leverage to push his agenda of reducing income inequality, curbing big money in politics and reining in Wall Street.

At a news conference in Washington on Tuesday June 14,2016,Bernie  Sanders said he would also demand changes to make the Democratic nominating process more equitable, including replacing the Democratic National Committee leadership, letting independents take part in the voting and eliminating superdelegates, who are unelected and are free to support any candidate.
