(8,760 posts)I have always received Hillary emails. I believe that it is because of past donations to Planned Parenthood, DNC...etc.
I just thought that a email calling me out for giving her nothing was pretty funny.

(58,724 posts)Was just taking a guess. Probably you are right though - one of those other websites must've shared email info.

(16,376 posts)Those lists are sold to other campaigns. Even if you never donated but we're on any campaign's mailing list? Even a nonprofit that backs her might have shared their list
What's unfathomable is that despite having Obamacare techies and some of his campaign communications critters on staff, her campaign hasn't managed to properly segment the lists she's using. If they're going to email newly acquired lists, they could at least ease into it instead of just assuming you're on her team. The arrogance .. As usual. It burns.

(8,760 posts)Sending me an email that tells me that I have given 0 donations for 0 dollars just struck me as absurd.

(1,078 posts)...glad hands me and immediately treats me like an old friend it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. If they then immediately ask for money they're lucky if I don't teach 'em a few new four letter words.
Team Hillary should really nix this particular strategy, immediately.
