The runner-up in the 2020 Democratic primaries visited New Hampshire over the weekend.
On Saturday, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) delivered a speech titled “The Agenda America Needs” at Saint Anselm College's New Hampshire Institute of Politics. The two-time winner of the first presidential primary detailed his proposed solutions to alleviate the struggles faced by blue-collar Americans. Sanders acknowledged the GOP's increasing appeal to a more diverse working class, while Democrats now represent nine out of the top 10 wealthiest congressional districts.
Despite the hopes of some progressives, the socialist senator confirmed that he stands behind President Joe Biden.
“It is no secret that I want Joe Biden to be reelected president,” Sanders told the audience to applause, “and that he and I share the goal of beating back right-wing extremism.”
Although intended to shore up support for the incumbent president, attendees interviewed by the New Hampshire Journal expressed their desire for a candidate to challenge Biden from the far-left:
When asked if she wished someone like Sanders was running for president in 2024, Sand Brim of Washington, N.H., was unequivocal. “I would love to see an alternative to Joe Biden,” she told NHJournal. “If for nothing else, I'd like to see an alternative candidate to try and push the envelope, get the Democrats to be a little bit more honest about the reality and what has to be done.”
And despite Sanders's outspoken support of the Biden administration, some in the audience remained unconvinced. Victoria Bard of Beverly, Mass., told NHJournal she planned to go another route this primary season.
“I absolutely wish that Bernie would run again in 2024, but I also support Marianne Williamson,” she said. “If she makes it far enough, I absolutely will [vote for her].”
Those sentiments are one reason Democrats are nervous about Biden's decision to shun the Granite State after his failed attempt to strip New Hampshire of the first primary vote of 2024. If, as expected, Biden refuses to allow his name to be placed on the ballot of an unsanctioned primary he personally kicked off the calendar, passionate progressives could turn out to back Williamson or Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and deliver an embarrassing blow to Biden's campaign.
