Pro-Clinton group adds $2 million to its war chest

By Dan Merica, CNN

Ready for Hillary's haul came from more 38,000 contributions, according to group spokesman Seth Bringman.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

Washington (CNN) -- Ready for Hillary, the super PAC urging Hillary Clinton to run for president in 2016, raised over $2 million and had 21,000 new donors in the last three months, officials from the group said Wednesday.

Ready for Hillary's haul came from more than 38,000 contributions, according to group spokesman Seth Bringman, giving the group an average contribution of $52.

The $2 million is in line with what Ready for Hillary has raised in the past, but slightly less than the record $2.5 million the group raised in the second quarter.

Ready for Hillary is part of a cadre of pro-Clinton outside groups that are organizing for Clinton's likely run at the presidency. Unlike other super PACs, which are focused on communications and large-money donors, Ready for Hillary has tried to focus on small, grass-roots donations. So far, the group has raised over $10 million.

But in the third quarter of 2014, Ready for Hillary also moved to do more than just raise money and began to raise its profile in the eyes of many longtime Clinton confidants by having a large presence at events like September's Harkin Steak Fry in Indianola, Iowa.

Led by former Clinton aides and supporters, the super PAC also began to dish out money to state parties, local candidates and other Democratic groups, as well as helping raise money for 2014 candidates whom Clinton has endorsed.

Hillary Clinton comes to Louisville in support of Grimes campaign

U.S. Senate candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes is getting some help on the campaign trail from one of the biggest names in politics.

She'll share the spotlight with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at an event at the Kentucky International Convention center on Wednesday night.

The former first lady is the second Clinton to campaign for Grimes.

President Bill Clinton traveled to Kentucky twice this year to do so.

Some people view Wednesday night's visit as a boost for Grimes after a recent hit.

Throughout her campaign, Grimes has repeatedly called herself a "Clinton Democrat" and she'll likely use the phrase again Wednesday night with Hillary Clinton by her side.

The event came two days after her debate with Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell, when Grimes again refused to answer whether she voted for the current president.

"She stumbled a little bit lately when asked whether she voted for President (Barack) Obama and she came back and said, 'I'm a Clinton Democrat.' So by having Hillary come in right now, there couldn't be a better time that she can sort of come in and help solidify the fact that she clearly is running in the mold of being a Clinton Democrat," said University of Louisville political science professor Dewey Clayton.

Clayton said it's an especially good time because Bill Clinton is extremely popular in Kentucky, unlike President Obama, who lost the state badly in his elections.

"Bill Clinton is the last Democratic president -- or presidential candidate for that matter -- to win Kentucky in the election," Clayton said.
