    This is a long read, and definitely very pro-Sanders, but it's also a very interesting deep-dive into the (r)evolution of election campaigns in the US, both strategy and tech. It is reminiscent of both the Obama campaign and the Ron Paul campaign, for finding new ways to get people who have never voted, or who gave up on the process long ago, into the election, specifically into this election.

    Buried deep in the article was—for me, at least—a very chilling comment, that besides the Sanders team, the only other campaign out there leveraging these techniques, was Trump.

      That's a quote from the Sanders' campaign's own lead organizer, so take it with a grain of salt.
