Hillary Clinton's Campaign Sharing Data/Funds with State Parties

I apologize if this was posted earlier, but I just saw it recently and am delighted to see it.

Nobody seems to be talking about this, but it seems like a BFD to me.
Clinton is using her superstar status and fundraising prowess to directly benefit the downticket races that we need to win to rebuild the Democratic party nationwide.

She is the only candidate we have that is in the position to do this, and she's doing it.

Those are some blood red states that she's raising money for,

If this ends up a wave election, Clinton is positioning us to ride that wave, even if she is not the nominee.

That is her commitment to the Democratic Party.

This is yet another reason for me to be a proud Clinton supporter. You go, girl. This is like what Howard Dean did as DNC Chair.

The Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee announced a fundraising agreement in late August, making it possible for donors to give to her campaign and to the party's general election fund with one check. Clinton would only benefit from the money if she becomes the Democratic nominee.


Even if she is not the nominee ... the downticket races will benefit.
