As the election in New York closes in, a debate between Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton and rival Bernie Sanders has remained elusive for both sides. Though Bernie Sanders challenged the front-runner to a debate himself, his campaign has ended up rejecting Clinton's proposed campaign dates.

One of the most recent suggestions for a debate, proposed by Good Morning America (GMA), is set for April 15. Keeping with the trend so far, Clinton has declared that she will be showing up for the debate.

"I want a debate, and I'm confident that we can work out a time to do that, 'GMA' offered a debate during 'GMA' on Friday the 15th. I'll be there.  think it's a great opportunity to reach an audience that may not always be able because of other obligations to tune into debates," Clinton said.

Also keeping with the trend so far, Sanders has not issued his acceptance for the April 15 debate date.

The Democratic Party's ongoing debate over a debate has become the center of the ongoing primaries, with the two candidates both attempting to get the other to agree on a date. After accepting Sanders' challenge, Clinton's campaign suggested an April 14 debate, which, ironically, was suggested by the Sanders campaign back in December.

However, Sanders rejected the date, stating that there was a major rally scheduled for the day. Another date suggested by the Clinton campaign was rejected yet again, due to the date falling on the N.C.A.A. men's basketball finals.

The consistent rejection of proposed debate dates has aggravated the Clinton campaign, with spokesman Brian Fallon calling out the Sanders campaign for intentionally giving their side a hard time.

"The Sanders campaign needs to stop with the games," he said.

Clinton even suggested that Sanders' actions reflect that of a candidate who is badly losing in the race. She further referred to her comfortable lead in the primaries, stating that she is currently doing even better than in her previous campaign, where she ran against U.S. President Barack Obama.

"I understand as we get closer to the end there may be some anxiety, frustration and acting out on the other side that has to look at the facts. Look, I have 2.5 million more votes nationwide than Senator Sanders. have a big lead in delegates. In fact, my lead is higher right now than when I was running against President Obama and he led me in delegates," she said.

Regardless of Clinton's statements, however, Sanders has continually chipped away at her lead, winning Alaska, Hawaii and Washington recently. As the nomination approaches in July, Clinton is beginning to find herself being challenged by an opponent who is proving himself very, very formidable.
