14. Yeah? Those "minions" live in her district.

And one minion, in particular, has endorsed her in the primary.

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/house-races/274443-obama-endorses-wasserman-schultz-in-primary

...Obama doesn’t typically make endorsements in many House primaries, so the decision to wade into this one is noteworthy.

In his statement, he praised Wasserman Schultz's “unwavering commitment to her family, her constituents, and our shared goals of protecting seniors, supporting working families, and expanding economic opportunity for more people.”

Tim Canova, who is challenging Wasserman Schultz, has backed Sanders’s presidential campaign and was endorsed by the National Nurses United super-PAC, the group that has already spent more than $1 million to help Sanders.

Wasserman Schultz’s district leans Democratic so she’s unlikely to face a serious general election challenge.
