Ready For Hillary Starts Spreading Its Money Around To Key Dem State Parties and Organizations

[bigtree]

____ On May 28, Ready for Hillary shifted from being a super PAC to what's known as a "hybrid PAC." With the new designation, the group can contribute directly to federal candidates while still making unlimited expenditures like a super PAC (provided it's not coordinating with campaigns).

According to a list shared shared exclusively with The Huffington Post, Ready for Hillary has given money to 27 state Democratic parties and six national organizations since its shift:

Alaska Democratic Party
Arkansas Democratic Party
Colorado Democratic Party
Delaware Democratic Party
Florida Democratic Party
Democratic Party of Georgia
Idaho Democratic Party
Indiana Democratic Party
Iowa Democratic Party
Kentucky Democratic Party
Louisiana Democratic Party
Maine Democratic Party
Maryland Democratic Party
Massachusetts Democratic Party
Michigan Democratic Party
Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party
Montana Democratic Party
Nevada Democratic Party
New Hampshire Democratic Party
North Carolina Democratic Party
Ohio Democratic Party
South Carolina Democratic Party
South Dakota Democratic Party
Texas Democratic Party
Utah Democratic Party
Democratic Party of Virginia
Democratic Party of Wisconsin
Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC)
Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC)
EMILY’s List
Netroots Nation
Women Winning PAC
Young Democrats of America

"Making these direct financial contributions allows Ready for Hillary to further our mission by boosting grassroots efforts across the country to elect Democrats in 2014 and beyond," a Ready for Hillary official said in an email. "This is our initial set of contributions, and we will provide additional financial support in the coming months while continuing to channel the enthusiasm of our more than two million grassroots supporters to help Democrats come out on top this Fall."

Notably, the four early presidential primary states -- Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina -- are receiving funds from the group, as are all the states with major Senate races.

I am especially happy they are helping the Ohio Democratic Party. We need all the help we can get here in the Buckeye State. We desperately need help in getting rid of the completely corrupt governor John Kasich and Secretary of Voter Suppression Jon Husted.

Here is an interesting article about just how corrupt the GOP is here in Ohio. The amount of money being taken from public schools and put into private for profit charter schools is astronomical and is truly harming our children's education. We need help in Ohio.

5. Kickety. But she gets paid too much for her speeches, and you know that's a bad thing.

*Still haven't filled in my 2016 ballot.

9. I don't see how people who throw money around

to influence the political process are ever going to advance the cause of the majority, who don't have money to throw around.
