Nick - It seems that a call might be the best way to answer your questions. When would you like to do it, and who wants to be on it?

While we're at it, one more request from her that came to us because she emailed Sarah Nolan about No Limits. I don't care to help her on the first two, and probably don't need to address at all, but flagging in the event there's anything anyone thinks we should add.

 

5. About how many people were on staff at No Limits? How many came over from Hill PAC? Did Hill PAC transfer any funds or resources to No Limits?

Kopp's latest question is about our only donating 25% of what HillPAC took in, which on it's face, to someone with her bias, will look like 75% of the funds are self-serving in some way. What Shelly's note below indicates is that there are some good reasons for the 75/25 breakdown. We sent emails asking people to donate to candidates directly, it was a grassroots operations as much as a finance operation, etc. What I'm looking for is some indication and direction on whether this is a pretty customary arrangement. I can have examples pulled, but as I wasn't around back then I was hoping to get a little more concrete since we need are disproving the hypothesis of someone not inclined to believe us. Hoping for more ammunition. Make sense?
