New York Senate Fundraising Begins… For 2012?
Even though Hillary Clinton still has around twenty million in campaign debt, she has started raising money for her 2012 New York State Senate re-election campaign. First to work off her presidential campaign debt, Clinton has been appearing with Barack Obama in “Unity” fundraisers to raise money for Barack Obama, the DNC, and also for paying off her debt.
Now Clinton is targeting donors who donated the maximum $2300 to her general election campaign fund to allow her to keep those funds to transfer over to her 2012 fund. She’s sending letters to each of the donors saying:
“Dear friend, your commitment has meant so much to me over the course of my presidential campaign. You were there for me when I needed you the most and I’ll never forget it. I hope you’ll help me continue to fight for the issues and causes we believe in by filling out the enclosed form in support of Friends of Hillary.”
Once the form is filled out, it allows Hillary to transfer the money. With fundraising beginning this early, she may ward off any potential contenders to her seat in the 2012 election.
