Even scorching heat and calamitous thunderstorms that rocked the mid-Atlantic coast this week didn’t stop Bernie Sanders’ die-hard supporters from traveling to Philadelphia to protest the Democratic National Convention, where many have spent the week sleeping in tents in nearby campgrounds.
With hotels near the city booked long ago, campgrounds in the area have been transformed into activist hubs, bonding centers and sites of celebration around the campfire in honor of the nation’s favorite democratic socialist. Each morning, activists load into buses headed into the city for day-long demonstrations.
CNN Politics visited one of the camps here this week to find out why people drove from around the country and how they’ve been holding up. Watch the video above.
