It's HERE! The Fair Fight Georgia PAC.

Right now they are taking names and taking donations.

https://www.fairfightgeorgia.com/

UPDATE: A few people brought up the fact that the website is sparse, has no information, and could be a phishing site. So I will keep an eye on it and update when there is more information.

But apparently not willing to tell you anything about the organization that you are donating to PoliticAverse Nov 2018 #1

I agree...I support the idea, but there needs to be more than a slick website, looking for donations OAITW r.2.0 Nov 2018 #2

Who is running it and what are there goals is a minimum "must have". Otherwise, this looks like a Jill Stein scam.

When it is a single page with donation links, I immediately get my BS sensor tripped.

Act Blue wanted me to give them a tip for taking my donation. Also it says only that my money will go to the Georgia Democratic Party,. I pulled back my donation.

ActBlue is the central organization that takes in money for hundreds, maybe thousands of Democratic campaigns and PACs. I hope to find out what they charge for each donation, I'm sure they get a piece, but if it's only 50 cents, I think that's worth while. Even 1% would be worth while.

On the other hand, I think Fair Fight Georgia needs to separate themselves from the Democratic Party at-large. So I'll keep checking.
