Emily’s List May Inherit Pro-Clinton Social Media

“Ready for Hillary, the energetic, pro-Clinton super PAC, plans to shut down for good if and when Clinton announces for president, but not before finding a home for two key assets: A massive e-mail list of roughly 3 million supporters that the group has generated and its extensive social media network, which includes more than 2 million Facebook fans and roughly 150,000 Twitter followers,” ABC News reports.

“Both are seen as opportunities for marketing and outreach that can live beyond the existence of Ready for Hillary. The e-mail list and corresponding data are expected to be transferred to Clinton’s official campaign in what is called a ‘list swap’ – a legally complicated process that will surely be scrutinized by outside groups, such as the Campaign Legal Center, which work to enforce campaign finance laws.”

“The fate of Ready for Hillary’s social media accounts is still undecided. But, Adam Parkhomenko, the Executive Director of the super PAC has an idea: Transfer its Facebook and Twitter accounts in to the hands of another pro-Democratic group, Emily’s List.”
