Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) responded to the rise of rival Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloombergs rise in the polls, warning voters that the former New York City mayor wouldnt be able to generate excitement to win the White House.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe simple truth is that Mayor Bloomberg, with all his money, will not create the kind of excitement and energy we need to have the voter turnout we must have to defeat Donald Trump,\u201d Sanders told<\/a> a Democratic party gala.<\/p>\n

Bloomberg, who has poured hundreds of millions of dollars into his campaign, isnt competing in Nevada or South Carolina, instead trying to make his mark during Super Tuesday, where voters from a number of states cast ballots on March 3.<\/p>\n

And Sanders, currently considered the front-runner, is trying to leverage his recent win in New Hampshire. During the Democratic gala, the longtime senator faulted Bloombergs policies on stop-and-frisk policing, minimum wage, and Wall Street regulations.<\/p>\n

Democrats \u201cwill not create the energy and excitement we need to defeat Trump if that candidate pursued, advocated for, and enacted, racist policies like stop-and-frisk, which caused communities of color in his city to live in fear,\u201d Sanders said Saturday, reported Reuters.<\/p>\n

The former New York City mayors campaign issued a response to Sanderss remarks, saying Bloomberg raised taxes on the rich when he was in office.<\/p>\n
