Hillary Clinton looks to Elizabeth Warren to boost image

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was set to meet with US senator Elizabeth Warren, a leading progressive voice, as she seeks to build party unity heading into her election campaign against Republican Donald Trump.

The meeting, reported by several media outlets, came a day after Ms Warren endorsed Ms Clinton’s White House bid, adding support from the Democrats’ liberal wing as Ms Clinton seeks to move on from her protracted primary battle with Bernie Sanders.

Former secretary of state Ms Clinton earlier this week secured the delegates needed to win the party nomination for the November 8 presidential election.
