Folks, we now have seven weeks to go until Election Day on 8th November. Now is the time to help drive GOTV efforts and it’s also the time of the most critical campaign spending. I have created an ActBlue fundraising page called “Frisco’s Favorite Dems — 2016” for us all to help 37 strong Democratic candidates and three political committee.
So far, we’ve raised over $7,700 in funds from 79 contributors and I’m hoping to get the total contributed to these Democratic candidate well over the $10k hurdle before it’s all said and done. Can I count on your help to do so today?
You can give to all 40 42 candidates — 1 for US President, 14 US Senate, 22 24 US House, and 3 political committees and organizations, including 24 25 female candidates (full listing below), or simply choose to give to your favorites. But I’m matching donations to allow you to give what you can to your favorite Democratic candidates right now.
With the candidacy of Donald Trump offending people across the political spectrum, there has never been a better chance for the Democrats to pick up seats in both the US Senate and House of Representatives, possibly taking majorities in both houses. And this is your chance to help make that possible.
You can pick the candidate(s) of your choice from my list and donate what you can. It's simple, secure, one-stop shopping for excellent Democratic candidates!
For those of you who are new to this, I did the same thing in the 2012 campaign season and collectively we gave $11,440 to the candidates, with a whopping 70+% win-rate factor.
Now, not only can you donate to Secretary Clinton’s campaign
on this page, but you can give to any of over three dozen outstanding Democratic candidates for US Senate and US House seats.
Thank you in advance for your generous support - now let's help elect some great Democrats!
So Who’s Who on
the ActBlue fundraising page? Here’s a list of some great Democratic candidates who can help keep the White House in sane hands with Hillary Clinton and also return the Senate and House to BLUE status as well!
