Hillary wins Nevada caucus
Quote:
6:15 p.m. Clinton takes the stage at her Nevada headquarters to give her victory speech.
"I want to congratulate Sen. Sanders on a hard fought race here," Clinton began. "To the millions of people across our country who are supporting our campaign -- thank you from the bottom of my heart. We hear you, we see you, we're incredibly grateful to you. Because we're in this together."
"Americans are right to be angry, but we're also hungry for real solutions," the Nevada winner continued. Later, she asserted that "we aren't a single-issue country."
She also made a notable pitch to young voters, who have recently flocked to rival Sanders' campaign in the most recent nominating contests.
"I want to say this to all the young people out there: I know what you're up against," she said. "If you left college with a ton of loans, it's not enough just to make college more affordable. You need help right now with the debt you already have...I have a plan to cut your interest rates and cap payments so you never have to pay more than you can afford."
"We're going to build ladders of opportunity so every American can go as far as your hard work can take you," Clinton promised. "The future that we want is within our grasp."
The presidential candidate also previewed her next campaign stops, mentioning events in Texas and her husband's upcoming trip to Colorado.
