On Nevada caucus day, casino workers use their lunch breaks to make their voices heard in the Democratic presidential contest held in a Las Vegas ballroom.
“‘Unidos’ is ‘together,’” Canela said, pointing to a Sen. Bernie Sanders sticker on his chest that said “Unidos con Bernie.” “Together with Bernie. Together we can make more powerful.”
The workers filing in were about to answer one of the most persistent questions of the Nevada presidential contest: Would they buck the leadership of the Culinary union, which had been warning members that Walter Guardado, a cook at the Bellagio Hotel and Casino, shows a photo he took with presidential candidate Joe Biden.
He then grinned as he pulled out his phone to show a photo of him proudly shaking hands with Biden. “Yesterday,” Guardado said. “Fresh.”“He’s very humble,” said Rosilia Herrera, 59, a customer service worker who had also met Biden. She also had a soft spot for billionaire activist Tom Steyer. “I love him,” Herrera said softly. “I love him.”
Sanders’ unusual gravity soon made its presence felt at the Bellagio. After the caucus began at the stroke of noon, almost two-thirds of the 123 voters immediately aligned with Sanders, drowning out a smaller group of Biden supporters as they chanted “Bernie! Bernie! Bernie!” No other candidates had the 15% support needed to win delegates.
