Bernie Sanders is putting the "social" in "socialist."

A new dating website for people who support the presidential candidate called BernieSingles.com has been launched. As the site says, "The 1 percent aren’t the only ones getting screwed this election season."

Like Sanders himself, the site has clearly resonated with people. Close to 5,000 people have registered and with so many folks curious to see what BernieSingles was all about, it crashed.

There's even a Facebook page (with more than 9,000 members) people can check out.

One woman who is behind Sanders told GQ this is a great way to meet other people who share her views because you're in an environment where others understand you and "knowing that you don’t have to worry about, 'Oh, this guy is really, really great, but he kiiind of doesn’t like immigrants.’ You already know the person is on the same wavelength, probably morally and ethically, if they like Bernie Sanders."

Volunteers are running the site at the moment, but there is a GoFundMe page where you can make contributions because you no matter what Jennifer Lopez once sang, love does indeed cost a thing.
