Inside the Hillary Clinton campaign’s tech office

Hillary Clinton‘s campaign headquarters in downtown Brooklyn has a pretty sizable tech team, with some 70 employees. Business Insider recently took a tour inside the tech department’s digs, and, well, it looks like the typical office of a mid-size company.
“People sit in close quarters and often share desk space,” Lori Janjigian, the story’s author, wrote.
The office itself might not be anything to write home about, but the campaign’s tech team has a sparkling pedigree, boasting former employees of Facebook and IBM. It’s led by chief technology officer Stephanie Hannon, who previously worked at Google. As for the somewhat drab space, at least Hannon and company have tried to liven things up with some funny props, including hanging a big arrow that says “Slaaay!” above the desk of whoever’s doing particularly standout work.

The story includes a few callouts of some of the campaign’s tech projects, including the “Trump Yourself” Facebook app and a student debt calculator. But what we really want to know is how Hillary’s team manages clapbacks on Twitter. (We’ll get back to you.)
