53 ENDORSEMENTS. The Bernie Sanders campaign on Thursday released a list of no fewer than 53 New Hampshire elected officials and activists who are backing the Vermont senator’s bid for president.

Sanders won the 2016 New Hampshire Democratic presidential primary in a landslide over Hillary Clinton, and in July predicted in an interview with WMUR that he will win the 2020 primary. He is known for having a massive ground operation with a large network of volunteers.

The new endorsements follow a list of 26 New Hampshire backers released earlier in the summer.

Heading the new list are five state House members and seven local elected officials, in addition to 41 labor, environmental and community activists. Six of the endorsers are officers of local Democratic committees, although they are backing Sanders in their personal capacities and not on behalf of the committees.
