Carly Fiorina has a domain name problem. When she bought CarlyFiorina.com, the Republican presidential candidate failed to register the .org variant, and the work of a digital prankster who did buy the domain has almost received more attention than the rest of Fiorina's nascent campaign.
In an attempt to own the domain-name narrative, Fiorina's camp has struck back with #DomainGate, which is essentially a plan to buy up other should-have-been-reserved domains and set them up as redirects to Fiorina's site.
