Hillary Clinton appoints LGBTI liaison<\/b><\/p>\n

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has appointed an LGBTI liaison amid questions over her inconsistent record on gay<\/a> marriage.<\/p>\n

Dominic Lowell, 29, joined the Clinton campaign as director of LGBT outreach on Thursday (29 September), the Washington Blade<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

He previously served as director of strategic partnerships at Rock the Vote, a non-profit organization that aims to engage young people in politics, and is now one of several openly gay<\/a> men<\/a> to work for Clinton, including Campaign Manager Robby Mook and Deputy Political Director Brynne Craig.<\/p>\n

\n

*tap tap* Is this thing on? Clearing away the cobwebs and getting ready for a great campaign. Thanks for the follows and well wishes, y’all.<\/p>\n

— Dominic Lowell (@dominiclowell) September 29, 2015<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The creation of this new role comes days after Clinton was questioned about her inconsistent record on gay<\/a> marriage on NBC’s Meet the Press.<\/p>\n

‘On same-sex<\/a> marriage, like a lot of people, including our president, I did evolve,’ she said. ‘And I was not raised to even imagine this.’<\/p>\n

Clinton officially declared her support for gay<\/a> marriage in 2013.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Philip Dufour, former LGBTI liaison for former Vice President Al Gore, said Lowell ‘has a deep understanding of the challenges the LGBTQ community faces.’<\/p>\n

‘Working with him over the years, I am confident he will be an amazing asset and tireless force for change as our community seeks full equality under the law,’ he added.<\/p>\n

Elizabeth Birch, former executive director of the Human Rights Campaign, praised both the Clinton campaign and Lowell.<\/p>\n

‘More than ever before, the LGBT vote is a potent one – not just in terms of that critical edge that is required in close elections, but because LGBT people are now a mature and experienced organizing force,’ she said.<\/p>\n

‘This is a critical position for the Hillary Clinton campaign and they have filled it with a proven, dynamic talent in Dominic.’<\/p>\n
