Bernie Sanders rallied thousands of supporters in Washington state three weeks ahead of its presidential primary, calling for the grassroots movement that led to his win in the state’s 2016 caucuses to continue through the broader primary that takes place March 10.

“We may not have billions of dollars to throw around, but we have hundreds of thousands of people in every state in this country knocking on doors,” he said. “And that’s why we’re going to win here in Washington and why we’re going to win all over this country.”

Supporters packed the Tacoma Dome and chanted Sanders’ name as he appeared on stage after being introduced by U.S. Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a Seattle Democrat who is chairing his Washington state campaign. The Tacoma Dome holds about 23,000 people, and the campaign said more than 17,000 people were in attendance. Also speaking at the rally was actor Tim Robbins, who told the crowd “Bernie Sanders is the one who can unite us.”
