Amy Klobuchar's success has come so suddenly that her campaign appears to be somewhat unprepared for the Nevada caucuses.
It’s a whole different Democratic presidential race in Nevada, where union members and voters of color are a large part of the electorate.Klobuchar urged the crowd to bring companions to their caucuses next weekend.
Interviews with voters at the events showed that Klobuchar’s notable performance in the New Hampshire debate and her strong finish in the primary have carried over to Nevada and sharpened their interest in her.“I think Joe Biden was originally my choice; he was going to bring us to the promised land,” said Stuart Rubin, a 62-year-old Las Vegas retiree, as he held a green Klobuchar sign. “Now other people are stepping up around him.
Scott Justes, a 58-year-old Las Vegas independent who works in finance and sales, said he’d been planning to sit out the Democratic primary until he saw Klobuchar’s performance in New Hampshire. “I liked her before,” Justes said, “but it’s hard to back someone you know is going to lose for sure, but now she’s giving me the impression she’s going to win.”
