Bernie Sanders Adds Top Iowa Operative To Team
BERNIE SANDERS ADDS TOP IOWA OPERATIVE TO TEAM
On April 23, 2019 By prynard
Excerpts:
Bernie Sanders is bringing on Jessica Vanden Berg, a well-known veteran of Iowa and national campaigns, to his caucus team. She will serve as a senior advisor for their Iowa operation.
Vanden Berg ran Christie Vilsack’s 2012 congressional campaign, worked for former Congressman Leonard Boswell, and served as the deputy director for the Iowa Democratic Party. Outside of Iowa, she ran Jim Webb’s successful 2006 campaign for Senate and served as Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard’s chief of staff. She also helped start up Emerge Iowa, a group that encourages and supports women who run for office.
“We couldn’t be happier to have Jessica joining our growing team here in Iowa. She has a long track record of working for successful statewide campaigns that have brought real progressive change to Iowa and across the country,” Misty Rebik, Sanders’ state director, said in a press release. “I have no doubt her expertise and vision will play an important role in driving us to victory in next year’s caucus.”
Although Sanders’ Iowa team got started a little later this year than several other candidates who announced earlier, they’ve quickly built up a sizable operation. By Starting Line’s count, this is their 12th publicly-announced staffer in a leadership role for Iowa, and they’re working on building out a field team. Given their significant fundraising advantage, it’s quite possible that Sanders will end up with the largest team in the state.
