Los Angeles Times backs Clinton over Sanders

California's largest newspaper on Friday backed Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders, arguing that the former secretary of state represents a better candidate to take on Donald Trump.

The Los Angeles Times Editorial Board's endorsement comes four days before California holds its crucial primary. It wrote that although "California's Democratic primary owe a debt of gratitude to Bernie Sanders for a campaign that has emphasized issues that otherwise might have been ignored," the voters "should cast their votes for Hillary Clinton."
