Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders on Monday officially endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden for president.

“We need you in the White House. I will do all that I can to see that that happens, Joe,” Sanders said to the former vice president during a livestream broadcast by Biden’s campaign on his website and on social media.
 
Sanders’ quick endorsement of Biden in mid-April, just five days after he suspended his campaign, was a stark contrast to the 2016 Democratic race, when Sanders continued to battle Hillary Clinton into June.
