Just days after the election, Sen. Bernie Sanders stopped by a community potluck. Attendees said he gave a few words about expecting some very challenging times ahead, and then headed into the gym with the kids to toss a football. The potluck dinner was organized by the community to start conversations about how to best move forward as a community in light of the outcome Tuesday. "I think no matter how you feel about the outcome of the election, we need some more community," attendee Carina Driscoll said. "People need to come together. We need to recognize that Burlington is still an amazing, diverse, vibrant community and we wanted to be together."
