218. Tell that to BS.. Keith is asking him for his donor list..
Tue Feb 28, 2017, 12:35 AM
Feb 2017

Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) said for the first time that he will ask Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) to share the donor list built during his 2016 presidential campaign, answering a question that had begun to unsettle the race to run the Democratic National Committee.

“We’re gonna call on everybody to give all the resources they have,” Ellison said during a Huffington Post-hosted debate at George Washington University. “We’re in an emergency situation.”

It absolutely does - the data collected thru 12/31/2016 and excludes email addresses Talk Is Cheap Feb 2017 #98
