Democratic presidential candidate Sen.

Drew Angerer / GETTY IMAGES NORTH AMERICA / AFPProgressive firebrand Bernie Sanders earned a decisive victory Saturday in the Nevada caucuses, solidifying his frontrunner status in the race to choose the Democratic nominee who faces President Donald Trump in November’s election.
The two female US senators in the running, progressive Elizabeth Warren and pragmatist Amy Klobuchar, were on 10 and four percent respectively. Sanders was speaking in El Paso, Texas, one of the 14 states that votes on “Super Tuesday” on March 3. “Looks like Crazy Bernie is doing well in the Great State of Nevada,” Trump tweeted, maligning other candidates before adding: “Congratulations Bernie, & don’t let them take it away from you!”
