Hillary's Fundraising for State races: September 15- Dec 31 2015... it ain't 6.4K, LOL.

I looked at open secrets to see what her dastardly victory Fund was doing- since they will be getting the bulk of the money from those two pricey dinners with George Clooney (Full disclosure, I met him and he had his arm around me for five minutes- worth it!) The fund was started mid-September, and these totals are only from Sept- Dec, so they'll probably double by the end of the month.

I was told she only gave less than 6.5K away to the states! Wow. I knew that had to be wrong, because I have common sense. They were right- there SHOULD be an OP about this!

We need all the help we can get here in PA to defeat Repub Senator Pat Toomey!

A Democratic president is going to need a Democratic Senate, and that is do-able this year!

I don't know if this "follow the money" is stupid or just lying to us. I though Open Secrets would be a reliable place to look.

it just takes some common sense to figure out that $6400 is not correct!

I find an awful lot of inaccuracies these days!
