What's right in front of me, which right now is putting recounts as my top and only priority.

So I'm trying to help raise money for the Green's Ohio recount in whatever way I can (emailing friends and family, etc). I've already donated what I could. Eloriel posted an explanation of the different groups who are collecting money for recounts, but I'm focusing my efforts on helping to fund the Green Party's recount.

I just got an email back from a friend at the Ga GP, in response to a question I asked him this morning about the status of their funding, since I was hearing different information, that Cobb had enough and then that he didn't.

I've posted what he said below.

I also was searching the DU website for the post that was asking for money for Cobb's recount but couldn't find it yet. Does anyone have a link? Don't want to start a new thread if I can locate the old one.

So, I'm doing what I can on the problem at hand. I can't think beyond that yet.

Here's the email from my friend re: funding Cobb's recount:

"Right now we are at: $228,401.19 of the $250,000 we're out to raise by Monday. That leaves us $21,600 shy of our goal. Full details of how we anticipate spending the money are posted to the front page at: http://www.votecobb.org/

Our attorneys have already dlivered the bond for the $116,300 bond to secure our right to demand the recount.

We also still need another 1,400 volunteers willing to go to Ohio. Most of the funds are to support such a large volunteer team with housing and meals, I think.

Thanks for your help!"
