Sanders won his campaign to be mayor of Burlington in 1981, setting off his decades-long political career. Driscoll volunteered for her stepfather’s presidential campaign.
Burlington was also home to Burlington College, where her mother, Jane Sanders, once served as president. The college closed down in 2016 after going bankrupt and failing to meet accreditation standards.
The FBI is investigating Sanders for falsifying loan documents while she was president of the college.
