Pro-Hillary PAC Raises More Than $1 Million

“A new group dedicated to paving the way for a Hillary Clinton campaign in 2016 has already recruited dozens of the Democratic Party’s elite donors and bundlers, effectively kicking off the presidential money hunt more than three years before Election Day,” the New York Times reports.

“The group, Ready for Hillary, is aiming to build Mrs. Clinton a grass-roots network that would give her a prohibitive edge in any Democratic primary and a significant advantage over potential Republican rivals, channeling enthusiasm for Mrs. Clinton, a former first lady and New York senator, into Facebook hits, Twitter followers and affinity groups around the country.”

Key detail: Disclosure reports due to be filed with the FEC this week “will show more than a million dollars raised since the group began fund-raising in earnest this spring.”
