thewayneOh, I love irony!
The PAC is now called Haley Voters For Harris, and after Miss Nik threw her support to Trump at the convention, they decided to throw their support - and their $400,000 - to Kamala!
Little Miss Nik didn't like this and sent them a cease and desist, saying they couldn't use her name, likeness, etc. So the people running the PAC, in their best Eric Cartman imitation, replied with (paraphrasing) "I can do what I want!" Nikki is a public figure, which loses her a lot of copyright protection, greatly weakening C&D threats.
From the article: “Kamala Harris and I are total opposites on every issue,” Haley wrote in a statement denouncing the group. “Any attempt to use my name to support her or her agenda is deceptive and wrong.” To which the group responded "“Our rights to engage with voters and encourage them to vote for Vice President Harris—who in our view is the clear better choice for the country—will not be suppressed,” and instantly gained another 3,000 followers!
I find this tremendously amusing.

Date: 2024-07-25 07:40 pm (UTC)I read that, IIRC, on the first day of her campaign they signed up 53,000 volunteers - 100x more than a campaign typically signs on in a day! That $400k will buy a lot of pizza and soda for volunteers!

Date: 2024-07-26 06:19 pm (UTC)She seemed to have a spine, but apparently had it removed prior to the convention. But there is growing dissatisfaction with Vance, question is do they dump Vance and anoint Haley, and can they do that at this point, i.e. they've had their convention. Apparently they weren't expecting the Dems to throw their full weight behind Kamala!
