Sanders campaign to hold hold Philadelphia at start of Convention

Philadelphia Inquirer:

Sen. Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign is seeking a demonstration permit for the day before the Democratic National Convention kicks off in Philadelphia.

The Sanders campaign wants to hold a "traditional Bernie campaign rally" July 24 at FDR Park in South Philadelphia, campaign spokesman Michael Briggs said.

The date and location already had been scooped up from the city by Sanders supporter Bill Taylor, of Northeast Philadelphia. Now, the Sanders campaign is coordinating with Taylor to use the permit to get a prime spot for the rally.

Briggs did not elaborate on the rally plans except to say that Sanders would deliver a "victory statement."


If it's a "traditional Bernie campaign rally" will he be saying he has a chance to win the nomination?
