Mitt's Veep: There's an App for That

The Mitt Romney campaign released a new smart phone app today. Called “Mitt’s VP,” the app will be the campaign’s first official distribution channel for announcing who will be selected as Romney’s vice presidential running mate. Available here for both iPhones and Android, the app will push a notification of Romney’s vice presidential selection. It will also allow users to post the selection to their social networks. Users can also use the app to donate to the campaign and purchase exclusive campaign swag.

“The historic announcement is getting closer,” said Beth Myers, Romney Campaign Senior Adviser in a campaign press release. “Soon everyone will know who Mitt Romney selects as his Vice Presidential running mate. With this new app, users can be the first to know the second member of America’s Comeback Team.”

“The first official way to learn the name of the Republican Vice Presidential candidate is by using our new ‘Mitt’s VP’ app,” said Romney Digital Director Zac Moffatt.  “Users of the app will be the first to get the news on the biggest political decision of the year through an instantaneous alert on the one device most people carry around the clock – their phone.”
