Clinton Super PAC Checks In

In what some see as a sign of the tightening race between the two Democratic candidates, Priorities USA Action is pouring $5 million into pro-Clinton voter outreach and radio ads.

The majority of the money — $4.5 million — will go to voter outreach in early-voting states, which started on Friday with Georgia and Illinois, and others will be added on a rolling basis. The group has teamed up with other pro-Clinton organizations for the early-voting campaign.

“We want to make sure that we’re educating voters on where, when and how they can vote,” spokesman Justin Barasky told POLITICO.

And for whom.
“It is truly unfortunate that the largest pro-Clinton super PAC has decided to infect the democratic primary process with its haul of Wall Street cash. Democratic voters expect more,” Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver said in a statement.
No they don't.
“Doesn’t the Clinton campaign have the funds to run its own ads without resorting to its super PAC, which is funded by the very people Secretary Clinton has promised to take on?”
Apparently not.
As of the end of January, Priorities USA had $36 million in the bank.
If that won't buy you an election, nothing will.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
