23. I'm sorry but you have your facts wrong. Very wrong.

Nov 2015

Sanders does have the same resources as Clinton, in Iowa. According to the Des Moines Register, both Sanders and Clinton have 20 Iowa offices.

Clinton claims to have 75 full-time staff and Sanders reports 71 full-time staff members.

I question your claim that "Clinton has coordinators for every Iowa Caucus site". Iowa has 1,692 precincts within the state. Each precinct conducts its own caucus.

Are you actually suggesting that Hillary has a separate "coordinator" for each of these 1,692 precincts?

I think you have incorrect information.

Hillary may have a lot of volunteers, but so does Bernie.

The truth is that both Hillary and Sanders have a comparable number of staffers and offices in Iowa.
