Sanders Struggles to Dent Clinton’s Lead Among Black Voters

Sen. Bernie Sanders is waging an aggressive fight to woo African-American voters in the run-up to the Democratic presidential primaries, hoping to make inroads with a voting block that knows little about him and has deep ties to the Clinton family.

Conceding they have substantial ground to make up, Sanders campaign officials are scrambling to introduce the Vermont senator to black voters and assure them he is no less an ally than Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.
