Super PACs aid Warren, Klobuchar whether they like it or not
Associated PressCHICAGO — Democrats Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar are getting help for their presidential bids from separate super PACs, whether they like it or not. But as outside groups backed other candidates and billionaire Mike Bloomberg joined the race, making multimillion-dollar ad buys across the United States, the groups and supporters such as Emily’s List said they needed to jump in and help boost the campaigns of the top two women still in the race. Warren is the best candidate to take on Donald Trump and win, and we’re going to ensure primary voters and caucus-goers hear her message,” said Joshua Karp, a spokesman for Persist PAC. The Warren campaign said her position “hasn’t changed,” adding that she has “made clear that she thinks all of the candidates should lock arms together and say we don’t want super PACs and billionaires to be deciding our Democratic nominee.” Warren is third in the delegate count for the Democratic nomination, after finishing third in Iowa and fourth in New Hampshire.
