And why am i getting an email from them pushing Hillary Clinton as a 2020 presidential candidate??? See below:
"Even though Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by almost three MILLION votes -- Donald Trump won because of Russian interference.
We dont think thats fair. What if Hillary had another shot?
Thats why were reaching out to our strongest Democratic supporters to get their opinion. Youve been chosen to represent 49101! Take our poll immediately:
Should Hillary Clinton run for President in 2020?
YES >> NO >> "
"we need a strong progressive candidate to take on Trump in 2020.
And we think Hillary Clinton could be the one!
But Democrats need to be on the same page if were going to win in 2020, so thats why we are reaching out to you.
Should Hillary Clinton run for President in 2020?
YES >> NO >> "

(16,685 posts)That i hadn't heard of before... which caused me to pose the question (assuming the email was legit) ... why are they emailing me to push Hillary Clinton as a candidate for 2020 when she's not running and we already have one?
Is that clear enough for you?

(16,685 posts)It looked like a typical email from a Democratic organization... nothing stuck out as scam-like. I have actually submitted a question to the organization about it... not replying to the email itself of course.
I was wondering if anyone else had encountered it.

(17,019 posts)Ive taken trainings from them about running for office. Sounds like someone is using their name and sending out bs e-mails. When you click on the e-mail address is should be from ndtc@traindemocrats.org if its legit.

(16,685 posts)I cannot believe a legit organization would send something like that out at this point... hence my post. I submitted my concern about the email i got to their official site... reached by googling and not any links in the email. You saw the text of what was sent out in my OP.
