Hillary Campaign Logo Finally Getting The Love It Deserves-HRC Room



HILLARY CLINTON ROOM

David Allen

’ll admit it, when I first saw the Hillary campaign logo, with only a single “H” in blue and red, I was shocked. We all have a certain expectation for what a political candidate logo is supposed to look like, and I was no exception. This strange new logo from Hillary Clinton’s campaign was something totally new and different.

I remember talking to Dave in the office and saying that I wasn’t sure if I liked the logo, but I was certain of this: The new logo was bold, it was striking, it demanded attention. They were doing something visually that no other campaign was doing.

I liked that they got away from the Ye Olde Flagge Pin look of old logos coupled with heavy serif fonts. It shows up on social media posts and your eye goes to it. I also like the way they are switching it up with different backgrounds and colors.

It's the same design firm that did the Obama O. People just like to kvetch.

Until I realized that the haters here, just wanted to stir up negativity towards Hillary, and nothing more.

Eat it, haters.
