Can Warren Keep Up With Her Growing ‘Selfie’ Lines?

September 1, 2019 · 11:07 am ET · Leave a Comment

ABC News: “While other candidates frequently take photos with voters — with Sanders recently making a point to take ‘selfies with anyone who wants them’ at events where his schedule allows — Warren, without fail, has stayed until the end of the photo line after each of her events. As one senior campaign official noted, the process demands its own set of logistics: venues have to be booked out longer to account for the lines, certain staffers are known to be able to skillfully move the line along faster than others and there are concerns about how to best avoid germs given they touch so many strangers’ cell phones.”

“Asked whether increasing crowd sizes might force changes to the ‘selfie line’ strategy, a spokesperson for the Warren campaign declined to comment.”

“For now, the candidate is staying committed to the time-consuming process, which she’s told her staff and reporters that she finds ‘energizing.'”
