Sanders and AOC are stumping for Brand New Congress candidate Brent Welder who told The Guardian

"One of my biggest issues is getting corrupting influence of big money out of politics,” he said, “and I was attracted to the fact that [Green party candidate] Jill Stein was very dedicated to that cause, I will say, and I wasn’t afraid to look into the possibility of supporting her.”

He made clear that he did go door to door for Clinton and the rest of the Democratic ticket and decided to back her “when I got into the voting booth to actually vote”.
