Sanders Mulls Creating New Advocacy Group

Washington Post: “At the urging of his wife, Jane Sanders, he has been talking to his inner circle about launching a grass-roots organization to harness the energy of his supporters. Among aides, there is chatter about who might staff such an organization, which might resemble Democracy for America, the group that former Vermont governor Howard Dean launched following his failed 2004 presidential bid.”

The Sanders campaign claims 2.7 million people are on its donor list.
