Here from Canada cheering for all of you.

Don't give up, keep on pushing.

As long you persevere you keep the spirit alive, the moment you stop is when they've won.

$20 to the High Impact, $20 to Epsy, $10 to Register2Vote. It's all I can give right now, but it's the least I can do.

Voter registration surges after Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death, groups say

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death Friday helped prompt a surge in voter interest and registration, according to voting groups.
Wow, that's a lot of new voters! That's very good news to read (Of course, in an ideal world everyone in the USA would be able to automatically vote), this plus the massive fundraising surge should hopefully come in handy in the weeks to come.

Take back the Senate and the White House (Keep the House too!), kick those GOP shits to the curb.

I get that it's a necessity with your system as it currently stands, but seeing the obscene amount of money Americans piss away on fighting elections is truly depressing.

Yes, we don't like it either. Unfortunately, if we do nothing about a 6-3 Supreme Court it's only going to get worse. The conservative majority already allowed Cotizen United, which has been somewhat tampered by the current ad buy laws. Wait until the new SC gets rid of the individual donation cap...

It's gonna be tough to keep these people as voters once Trump is out of office unfortunately. Once Trump isn't in the news 24/7 anymore people will stop paying attention I feel like.

Did the counter loop around or something? It's gone back to like, 380 dollars donated by 5 people

Also, for Graham to be willing to go up on TV and admit all that, situation must feel kinda desperate

I've noticed this happens late at night sometimes than returns to normal. Must be some kind of backend maintenance that causes it for reset for a little bit.

I mean I don't have stats on it but I would wager that people who participated in and had success with a political movement will be more inclined to stay politically active than those that didn't.

A "F*ck Gerrymandering" fund for local races is up. It is mainly focusing on races in Florida, North Carolina, and Kansas. While not as important as the Senate ones, they will help in giving the Democrats more power when it comes to redrawing of districts that is coming up. Which should should help in retaining the House majority for 2022.
