No these sorts of donations don’t count to the $2700 max allowed for direct donations to your candidate. Expenditures under $1000 are allowed by groups and individuals.
This crowd fund project will fund the purchase of 500 W4B buttons, printed at a union shop, they will cost $430. As of this morning we’ve raised $180.
Here’s our plan, these buttons will be sold to canvassers on the ground for $3, the proceeds will go to funding 100’s of Westchester 4 Bernie lawn signs.
For every donation of $60 or more you will be mailed 3 W4B buttons as a bernspark PERK. Our deadline for the project is March 31st.
Thats me on the left and Barry on the right delivering the BERN at the Chappaqua Train station back in November. Our first crowd fund project raised over $500 for 10,000 pieces of 4 x 6 color glossy Bernie Lit. I built a voter database with phone numbers back in August/September, so we were canvassing and phone banking Westchester Dems back in then. Yes, I built my own VAN. Westchester4Bernie.org is now coordinating with Sanders staff in organizing as many canvass teams as humanly possible. BErnie volunteers in NY have been calling into early states since day one. So now its your turn to make calls into NY and identify the undecideds and Bernie leaners, we got the boots on the ground to take advantage of the voter ID work you all are doing by talking to those voters about Bernie.
Go to bernspark.com and donate, please fully fund this project. We’re at $263 and we need to get to $430.
You can help send Bernie volunteers into Chappaqua NY with these supercool buttons.
A little birdie told me we’re going to deliver Westchester County to Bernie !!
