Hillary Clinton has recently met with two of the names most frequently floated to be her campaign manager in 2016, should she choose to run, Politico reported Thursday.
She met Wednesday with Guy Cecil, who oversaw the national Democratic Senate campaign arm during the 2014 election, according to Politico’s sources. Clinton has also met with Robby Mook, who ran Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe’s 2013 campaign, though Politico could not secure firmer details of the meeting.
The specific substance of the meetings was not disclosed.
Stephanie Schriock, president of Emily’s List and the other name that pops up as a possible manager, demurred when asked by reporters earlier this month if she had had any discussions with Clinton about a potential role in a campaign.
Mook, who worked on Clinton’s 2008 bid, is most commonly portrayed as the frontrunner for the spot. A leak of messages from his private email list last month suggested as much.
“Happens to the frontrunner,” as one Democratic source put it to TPM when discussing the leak.
