"According to analysis of Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings by the Center for Responsive Politics, four of the top five employers of Sanders donors are tech companies. Google is number one, its employees having contributed more than $200,000. Microsoft, Apple and Amazon occupy the
third, fourth and fifth spots respectively. Hillary Clinton, by contrast, has no tech companies in her top five, and only one in her top 20.
Sanders also appears to be receiving far more individual contributions from tech workers than Clinton. A software engineer and Sanders supporter named Bill Schaller used the FEC filings to produce a pair of pie charts that break both sets of contributors down by occupation. Technology and education are the leading fields among Sanders donors, while Clinton’s are legal and retirees.
Momentum behind Sanders in tech is growing. As the Wall Street Journal and BuzzFeed recently reported, Bernie has seen a significant surge in contributions from the tech industry since late 2015, and is now out-raising Clinton more than two to one among tech workers. These seem to be first-time
contributors, since the amount of cash going to Clinton has remained steady while the amount going to Sanders continues to rise."
"The 2016 primary elections will significantly influence the Democrats’ political course for the next generation. Demographics imply Democrats will be the majority of the future, but the party’s political
identity and agenda is up for grabs.
If the Clinton vision prevails, the Democratic Party stands to become a party of neoliberal economics, wrapped in socially liberal identity politics. A Clinton-led Democratic Party will also continue President Obama’s tactical appeals to “bi-partisanship”.
The goal would be to enlist moderate upper-middle class Republican-leaning professionals into a corporate controlled Democratic Party franchise.
If the Sanders vision prevails, the Democrats will pivot toward their New Deal social democratic roots. In that case, economic solidarity and inclusion become the headline.
Under those circumstances, the Democratic Party would once again aspire to be a mass movement — rather than continue what it currently is: an awkward stitching together of corporate money,
social liberals and minority voters."
