Biography
Elizabeth Mair (born June 9, 1978) is an American political and communications consultant. She has worked as a journalist and commentator. She was the Online Communications Director at the 2008 Republican National Committee and has been a political strategist for a number of Republicans.
She was named one of Campaigns & Elections’ Influencers 50 in the field of communications in 2013. In December 2015, Mair founded the anti-Trump Make America Awesome Super PAC for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s presidential campaign. She received criticism and resigned from one position due to a few Twitter messages that she had sent.
Mair served as Online Communications Director at the 2008 Republican National Committee. She served as a spokesperson for the John McCain campaign and the RNC.
Since the RNC, Mair has worked for U.S. politicians including Rand Paul, Scott Walker, Rick Perry, Carly Fiorina, and Roy Blunt. In 2013, Mair was named one of Campaigns & Elections’ Influencers 50 in the field of communications in 2013. By 2013, she established her communications and public relations consulting business. Her clients have included politicians, Fortune 500 companies, and lobbyists. In December 2015, Mair established the anti-Trump Make America Awesome Super PAC for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s presidential campaign. It was created in opposition to Trump running for president and it focused on Florida, Indiana, Maryland and New Hampshire.
In 2015, 48 hours after being announced as Walker’s aide for his presidential campaign preparation, Mair resigned after it was reported that she had posted Twitter messages critical of agricultural subsidies, ethanol mandates, and “Iowa’s front-running status” in the US election cycle. In March 2019, Mair was accused in a defamation lawsuit brought by US Congressman Devin Nunes as being behind the @DevinCow parody Twitter account. In June 2020, a judge from Virginia ruled that social media networks are not liable for the posts made by their users, in accordance with Section 230 of the federal Communications Decency Act. In August 2021, the same judge dismissed the second of two suits Nunes had filed against Mair.
