Sanders’ rallies come about a month ahead of the Democratic Primary in New Jersey, on June 7. It is one of seven states that will hold its primary that day.

As of Friday morning, Hillary Clinton was leading the primary with 1,683 pledged delegates and 522 super delegates. Sanders has 1,362 pledged delegates and 39 super delegates. At total of 2,383 delegates are needed to secure the nomination.

Donald Trump is the only candidate left on the Republican side heading into a convention in which he is likely to see opposition to his candidacy from GOP party leaders. As of Friday morning, he had 1,053 of the 1,237 delegates needed to secure the party's nomination.
