(CNN) – Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid said Thursday that the Democratic race for president could drag on for months — and possibly to the Democratic National Convention in July.
In an interview with CNN, Reid said that the race between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton shows no signs of dying down, even as the former secretary of state had hoped the upcoming Nevada caucuses and South Carolina primaries would be her launching pad to the Democratic nomination.
“These races go on for a long long time,” Reid told CNN. When asked if that included a brokered convention, he responded “Sure, seriously some of the old conventions produced some good people.”
Reid also said, “It would be kind of fun.”
Reid said that Nevada is a toss-up right now between the two, and criticized the Clinton camp for saying that Nevada is 80% white.
