A Final New Years Fundraiser

by Jason Rosenbaum  ::  Filed Under Elections 2008  ::  December 31st, 2007 @ 5:50 pm EST

Before you head out to your New Years Eve bash, think about donating to Blue Majority candidates. People like Rick Noriega, Mark Pera, Donna Edwards, and Darcy Burner are running tight primary races against conservative Democratic incumbents. Burner is just $10,000 shy of reporting an amazing $600,000 cash on hand, and Donna Edwards and Mark Pera have primaries coming up in just a few short weeks.

Today is the last fundraising day of the quarter, so your donations can help push their numbers over the top and gain them recognition and campaign money from the national Democratic organizations like the DCCC.

If you're tired of Democrats capitulating on Iraq, privacy rights, torture, or children's healthcare, electing people like these progressive candidates will change that. Please donate tonight!

Thanks for making 2007 a great year. Here's to more and better Democrats in 2008!

One RESPONSE to “A Final New Years Fundraiser”

All the end of quarter donations are already in, but something that people should keep in mind when deciding which great candidates to give to is that those challenging other Democrats, like Mark Pera and Donna Edwards, will get ZERO support from the Democratic Party organizations like DCCC and it appears that they won't even get endorsements and fundraising help from MoveOn.

So, to my mind, we in the netroots have to provide the bulk of support for the challengers because the biggies won't.
