Democratic Attorneys General have targeted WinRed, a powerhouse fundraising platform for Republicans that has helped jumpstart small-dollar donations, with an inquiry into its practices. Attorneys general for the states of New York, Connecticut, Minnesota, and Maryland requested documents related to the processing of funds; specifically, the attorneys general are inquiring about pre-checked boxes which turn donations into recurring contributions. The attorneys general are also inquiring about ActBlue, the Democratic counterpart.
The GOP fundraising platform is pushing back on the unlawful, partisan, and hypocritical inquiry from Democratic attorneys general. WinRed noted that the attorneys general are using ActBlue to fundraise for their own races.
