Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumWilliamson lays off entire campaign staff
Best-selling author Marianne Williamson has laid off her entire campaign staff, according to two sources close to the campaign.
The longshot Democratic presidential hopeful will continue to seek her party's nomination. But she'll do so without a staff behind her. Manchester, N.H.-based television station WMUR first reported the mass layoffs on Thursday.
Williamson, an author and celebrity spiritual adviser, has been campaigning for the Democratic nomination for nearly a year. But she has struggled to break out of the lower tier of the primary field, often failing to register in national polls.
Unlike her middle- and top-tier rivals, Williamson retained only a small staff. Her latest federal financial report filed in October showed only a few dozen employees on her team. Among those laid off was campaign manager Patricia Ewing.
