The AO's polling data actually existed, & cost $. The 'dirt on Hillary' apparently did not exist, so no $ spent by Russia on it. [2/2]

(And even if 'dirt on Hillary' had existed, that might not be enough if Russia didn't spend $ to acquire it).

Bottom line: whether something is "thing of value" is fact-intensive inquiry. Not sure that THIS (i.e., info that didn't exist) qualifies.
