Warren’s campaign apparently sent dinner to the Sanders campaign headquarters in Washington, D.C. Mike Casca, a communications adviser for the Sanders campaign, thanked the Massachusetts senator’s team in tweet Wednesday evening.
big thank you to @TeamWarren for sending dinner to our dc headquarters.
