U.S. senator says he wants to focus his efforts on combating the coronavirus pandemic

This image from video provided by the Bernie Sanders presidential campaign shows U.S. senator Bernie Sanders as he announces he is ending his presidential campaign.Bernie Sanders has ended his leftist challenge for the Democratic presidential nomination, conceding the race to former U.S. vice-president Joe Biden and saying he wanted to focus his efforts on combating the coronavirus pandemic.

Mr. Sanders said he would keep his name on the ballot in all states that have not yet voted, including vote-rich New York and Pennsylvania. He said he hoped to amass as many delegates as possible in order to push Mr. Biden’s platform to the left at the Democratic nominating convention. “I’ll be reaching out to you. You will be heard by me,” Mr. Biden said. “And to your supporters I make the same commitment: I see you, I hear you, and I understand the urgency of what it is we have to get done in this country. I hope you will join us.”Whether Mr. Biden can get Mr. Sanders’s wing of the party behind him, however, is an open question.

The novel coronavirus upended the campaign in mid-March, with all campaign events cancelled. Both candidates continued broadcasting campaign speeches from their homes, but received scant attention amid the mounting crisis.

I am sure there were many factors that went into this decision. I believe one of them may have been the thought that a united Democratic Party was needed to stop Trump from killing more Americans.
