Watch Now: New Hampshire Democratic Town Hall on CNN

Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders participated in a live town hall event from New Hampshire. The town hall was hosted by CNN’s Anderson Cooper, and although they appeared separately, both candidates spent a great deal of time talking about each other. Sanders charged that Clinton was out of touch with the Democratic Party base on a number of issues including her ties to Wall Street and the Iraq War.

Clinton responded to his criticism saying, “So I’m not going to let that bother me. I know where I stand.” She framed herself as a progressive with ideas that are more practical than her opponent’s. Cooper and members of the audience asked Clinton questions on a wide range of policy issues. Clinton faces an uphill battle in New Hampshire. Sanders is from neighboring Vermont, and leads Clinton by double digits in recent polls. Clinton is hoping to close the gap. A video from Clinton’s portion of the town hall is below.

While Hillary Clinton is focused on the New Hampshire Primary, former president Bill Clinton was in South Carolina today to meet with voters before the state’s February 27th primary. Bill spoke to a crowd of over 800 at Allen University, a traditionally African American school. He spoke about Hillary’s credentials and experience and why she is the best choice for president. He said, “As I have grown older — and hopefully a little wiser — I try to spend a little more time explaining things to people and a little less time trying to convert the already converted.” A video from the event will be posted when/if available.

Chelsea Clinton was in Minneapolis, Minnesota for a Women for Hillary event at the home of House Minority Leader Paul Thissen. About 250 people attended the event, including Gov. Mark Dayton. Chelsea spoke about the importance of the Minnesota primary, especially following the close race in Iowa. She spoke about her mother’s experience and plans as president. She said, “Our next president will play such a fundamental role in shaping the country and the world that my daughter … and her future little brother or sister will grow up in.”

Chelsea will be in South Carolina later this week. For all the latest, follow our revamped Scheduled Events page and follow Clinton on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

Hillary Clinton Campaigns Before New Hampshire Town Hall

On the day of a New Hampshire Democratic Town Hall, Hillary Clinton attended three Get Out the Vote events across the state. Her first event of the day was in Derry where she was introduced by former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords and her husband Mark Kelly. Clinton focused on the issues, but she pointed out that many on her team wanted her to skip New Hampshire since she is trailing in the polls and in Bernie Sanders territory. She said, “I have to tell you. I just could not ever skip New Hampshire. I could not even imagine not being here, not being in settings like these.” A video from the event in Derry is below.

At the remaining two events of the day, one in Dover and one in Manchester, Clinton’s message was similar. She defended herself against comments made by Sanders questioning her progressive values. She pointed to her career and her work with heath care, advocating for women and gay rights, and pushing for stricter gun control measures. She has famously said that she is a “progressive who knows how to get things done.” Today, she said, “We’ve been fighting the progressive fight and getting results for people for years. I hope we keep it on the issues. Because if it’s about our records, hey, I’m going to win by a landslide.” A video from Dover is below, and a video from Manchester will be added when/if available.

Tonight Clinton and Sanders will take part in a CNN Town Hall, similar to the one in Iowa last week. Then, the two Democratic candidates will go head-to-head tomorrow night as both have agreed to a debate which will air on MSNBC.
