In reply to the discussion: I have never given any support to MOM, so why all the emails thanking me? [View all]pnwmom
(110,306 posts)63. Come on. You really don't understand this? The massive database with all
the contact information gathered from many years of campaigns, including Obama's old database and other databases, is owned by the DNC and is being rented to all three campaigns on the same basis.
Then each campaign adds its own special proprietary information that they gather from the people in that database, often through telephone or even door to door interviews. That proprietary info is not shared and is what Uretsky and his helpers delved into.
But it is no mystery why non-supporters are getting contacted. According to Bernie's own lawsuit, the database owned by the DNC and rented out to the campaigns includes full contact info, including email addresses.

Ouch. I assume you are mocking the post I wrote about my Mom and getting emails from HRC.
