Draft Sen. Nina Turner for Vice President!
Jackie Sobotowicz started this petition to Senator Bernie Sanders and
This is a petition to draft former State Sen. Nina Turner to run with Sen. Bernie Sanders on a joint ticket for Vice President and President (Respectively) of the United States of America.
Sen. Nina Turner has previously served on the Cleveland City Council (2006-08), becoming the first African American Woman elected to her seat. She also served in the Ohio State Senate (2008-14) eventually being elected Minority Whip. Then in the 2016 Democratic Primary election Sen. Turner supported Sen. Bernie Sanders' unsuccessful run to be the Democratic Nominee in the Presidential general election. Subsequently in 2017 she became head of "Our Revolution", a political action org. spun out of Sen. Sanders' 2016 presidential campaign.
On February 21, 2019, Sen. Turner was named a national co-chair of the Bernie Sanders 2020 presidential campaign. Saying in part, "In many ways I see this as a ministry, I am on a mission to help make this world a better place. I couldn't think of anything better to be doing right now than to help the man who has the heart soul agreement to bring about a revolution in this country. The type of revolution that will not leave working class blacks, whites, Latinx, Asian and indigenous people behind. There are many things I could be doing right now, but I'm on a mission. This is personal.".
Sen. Nina Turner has since tirelessly gone across the country, campaigning for Sen. Sanders; for a future rooted in principles of Justice, Universality, and Solidarity. I can think of no better person to serve as Bernie Sanders' Vice President, than Nina Turner! Please sign this Petition!
