Re: [projectvrm] Your Blink, please. Best GRM brand for a 3-month hashtag campaign: #SMARTvote14 or #NEWvote14?

Make A Difference #MADvote14

FWIW, you could simplify and surround the hash tags like #MADvoteFEM and 
#MADvoteHOT

Twitter advance search - https://twitter.com/search-advanced - will let you 
capture all the iterations of #MADvote, and you can filter by date range and 
remove the 14 so people don’t have to shift keyboards.
