Fantastic news, people.
We've blasted through our original goal - 100 contributions to each House candidate - for seven of the 11 names on the list. But that just means we need to follow through for the remaining four folks (Kissell, Courage, Seals and Fawcett), as well as the three Senate candidates (Lamont, Tester and Webb), who each need to hit 250 donors.
Here's James' summary, which he compiled every night at midnight, Eastern time:

Here's another amazing stat: Since the start of this push, we've amassed over 1,600 separate donations and raked in over $41,000 - in just two days. Not too shabby for the middle of August.
Also, please remember that today is the last day of the fundraising period for Eric Massa, Paul Hodes and Darcy Burner. It's also the last day for all federal candidates in AZ, DE, MD, MN, NH, NY, RI, VT & WI, so if you want to help make their FEC reports looks good, today is the day to give.
P.S. As always, please use this thread to tell us whom you've given to, so that we can give you some well-deserved mojo in return. And tell us more about your favorite candidates.
