Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders got another boost from the party’s left wing on Tuesday, picking up the endorsement of MoveOn.org Political Action, a nationwide grass-roots group that pledged to mobilize on Sanders's behalf.The group said its backing followed a membership vote in which Sanders was the favorite of nearly 79 percent of the more than 340,000 people who cast votes. Hillary Clinton received about 15 percent, and former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley was the choice of about 1 percent.
“This is a massive vote in favor of Bernie Sanders, showing that grass-roots progressives across the country are excited and inspired by his message and track record of standing up to big money and corporate interests to reclaim our democracy for the American people,” said the group’s executive director, Ilya Sheyman.
