Fun Fact: Marie Newman

snip//

Newman: I’ve always been politically active. I’ve worked on probably six different campaigns, Obama, Hillary [Clinton]. This past round, I worked on [Rep. Brad] Schneider, [Rep.] Raja [Krishnamoorthi] and a couple of other smaller campaigns. So I am no stranger to canvassing and phone banking and all of the like. I’ve been doing that for many, many years, probably 10 or 15 years."
