"Today, it's clear that Bernie Sanders' campaign will be competitive in every single state. Just a few months ago, Sanders was trailing by 30 points in Nevada and the establishment was confident that today would prove Bernie could not broaden his appeal beyond white voters. Caucus entrance polls are showing that Bernie Sanders won among Latino voters today," Working Families Party National Director Dan Cantor said in a statement after the race was called for Clinton. "Every week, people hear more about Bernie Sanders, and the more they hear, the more they like him. That's because Sanders' campaign is not about one unlikely candidate, but about all of us who believe that we must rise to the challenges of our times, from economic inequality to structural racism to climate change. We won't shy away."

Sanders himself set the tone of the post-caucus response in his concession speech, asserting that he's far from done and that it will all pay off on March 1.

"We are bringing working people and young people in to the political process in a way we have not seen for a very long time. in a short while I'll be on a plane to South Carolina and then we're going to be competing in 11 states all across this country on Super Tuesday," Sanders said Saturday. "And I believe that on Super Tuesday we have got an excellent chance to win many of those states."

The campaign and his supporters are especially optimistic about their chances in caucus states like Colorado and Minnesota.

"I think it's encouraging, I mean the Hillary camp went into this thinking that he was going to be anointed to the position and her numbers have dropped quite significantly," Colorado state Rep. Joe Salazar, who endorsed Sanders on Saturday night, told POLITICO. "Nevada was going to be a huge a test for her. She barely eked out a win in Iowa. And now she's barely eked out a win in Nevada. She lost the Latino vote. Obviously, Sen. Sanders did a hell of a job in New Hampshire. South Carolina will be a tough test of course.. We've all expected that. But I think that come Super Tuesday I just don't think the Hillary camp will be as gleeful as they would be on Super Tuesday."
