Activists Still Trying to Draft Elizabeth Warren for 2016 Run

She keeps saying no.

A group trying to draft Senator Elizabeth Warren to run for president in 2016 launched a website Tuesday, with plans to use a national gathering of influential liberal activists later this week to gain more publicity and recruit additional members.

The fledgling effort is another sign that liberal activists will continue to float a possible campaign, despite Warren's persistent denials that she will run.

Erica Sagrans, a 31-year-old who grew up in Cambridge, said she is the group's campaign manager, a position that she hopes will become paid once the group forms a committee and begins raising money.
