Hanover — Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders will be back in the Upper Valley today, stumping for Hillary Clinton at Dartmouth College.
The campaign stop is being billed as a “Get Out the Vote Rally” and begins at 2:30 p.m. at the Dartmouth Alumni Hall. He’ll be at Plymouth State University earlier in the day.
Sanders lost to Clinton in the Democratic primary, but has been campaigning for her, as well as for Twin State Democrats, since Labor Day. Tuesday is the start of a coast-to-coast campaign tour, which is expected to take Sanders to 12 states before Election Day.
Both Hanover and Dartmouth are considered liberal bastions in New Hampshire. Out of the more than 5,700 people who casts ballots in the state’s February primary, 2,286 voted for Sanders and another 2,005 voted for Clinton.
Town officials expect to have about 10,400 people on the voter rolls by Election Day. Of the roughly 700 voters who have registered to vote since mid-September, about 60 percent are Dartmouth students, according to Town Clerk Betsy McClain.
