UPDATE: Here is the post: http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251446475#post8

It is now just past midnight in the blue state of Hawaii. I'm impressed with the results, even though no candidate reached the match goal. More info later this morning.

My goodness, the Hillary supporters on DU have only managed 8 donations? $100? peacebird Jul 2015 #1

She doesn't really need small donations, except for p.r. purposes. Bernie does. merrily Jul 2015 #2

Well, I notice that the goal for Bernie was $7500 recently and is now $8500, so that's progress! merrily Jul 2015 #3

Plus, all donations may not be going thru DU. A few times, I've contributed without going through DU. The first few times, were before OS had set up accounts. And, a couple of times, I clicked directly on an email solicitation from the campaign without thinking. (Sorry, OS!) In the end, though, Bernie got it all, so I'm okay. However, OS has been working so hard on this I want to support him.
