Answer:

A. The Obama campaign used the internet to raise money and reach voters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2008 campaign faced Barack Obama against John McCain. Although in the 2004 campaign Howard Dean uses the internet to collect contributions, the candidates of the 2008 campaign went even further by creating their own sites. Also, they used the internet not only to collect contributions, but they also used it to reach newer and younger demographics.

I hope this answer helps you.
