The Sanders campaign emailed to clarify that "Friends Of Bernie Sanders" is raising money for Sanders' upcoming tour.

Despite the fundraising emails call to donate to "my re-election campaign", the campaign says they will not be announcing his political plans "for several months.".

"Please make a $27 contribution to my re-election campaign to help fund this national tour.".

It doesn't appear that Sanders will have a difficult time winning another term.

Davis also expects that Sanders will spend a fair amount of time during the 2018 campaign season working to support the election of Democratic congressional candidates throughout the country. »
