Excerpt:
Sen. Bernie Sanders’ army of volunteers has signed up to host about 3,900 organizing parties for his presidential bid, his campaign told POLITICO.
"People power is the unique and comparative advantage of the Bernie Sanders campaign," said Faiz Shakir, Sanders’ campaign manager. "We are seeing an extraordinary mass participation from a dedicated volunteer base, whose individual skills, life experiences and relationships to their communities allows us to connect with voters in a way that hasn’t been done before."
Sanders’ events will be held on April 27, the official kickoff of his presidential team’s organizing program, in all fifty states and Puerto Rico. Sanders’ fans will also host house parties in 19 countries outside of the United States.
The Sanders team is planning to provide his volunteers with specific tools to begin helping him. In 2016, his staffers trained volunteers to orchestrate their own phone-banking and texting efforts, resulting in 80,000 events, 85 million phone calls, and 10 million peer-to-peer texts, according to his staff.
