The Greens are still short for their recount . Can you help out tonight?

Every bit helps.

Oh, and Welcome to DU mirandapriestly :-)

Every little bit makes a difference :). Just think, if each of us here on DU donated even $3, they'd meet their goal.

that is good I hope! Thank You.

multiplied 50,000 times! :D
While I've got your attention, welcome to DU! :hi:

That's 20% of what I have in the bank...it matters that much.
If the HMS Titanic is an apt metaphor for American democracy it's us folks in steerage who'll get screwed the worst. There's no lifeboat for us.

And welcome to DU! :hi:

$25 bucks. I hope they pull it off.

And welcome to DU! :hi:

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

Welcome to DU! :hi:

It's times like this I wish I were rich, but I guess every $25.00 helps. I posted a link and request for donations on another board....hope it helps.

And we've got heart. :toast:

Welcome to DU! :hi:

Welcome to DU! :hi:

:)

I donated earlier today.

And I was so touched I tried to thank each one of you. Looks like we've got us a strong influx of new activists, or grizzled veterans of many campaigns but new to DU...either way it's good news for America.
Any of you new folks who I missed, welcome to DU! :hi:
You've chosen a good vehicle for the battle.

Just donated! Go OHIO recount!

:D

I'll report the $50 I gave this morning

along with asking questions.

My understanding is for Ohio recount they will also use 527 money? Is that money already part of the total?

If they are short by the 15th (and what time on the 15th) does that mean they can't get a recount or just have to leave out some counties?

I am low income but this mattered a lot and had this deadline. Ohio can turn the election.

NH is important too as a public way to see what is happening with those machines. I know they picked the key counties. My understanding is he will not take 527...and the donations must go through him?

Then BBV wants to audit several other states? And that is so important.

I don't know those deadlines but they can't be too far away. I gave a lot to Ohio because of obvious urgency...but the others matter to and I don't want to loose any chances.

Could a rich Democrat just fund some of these if they chose? Could Kerry's campaign just in and use their fund if they chose to?

You don't have to answer all those I just wonder all those things.

loop on this beyond the info I glean here from DU and on my Greens mailing list.

I think if you were to email the campaign manager, she would be happy to answer your questions. :)

I'm kinda broke these days.... :D

Go get um!

I worked at a polling place in Toledo, OH on Nov. 2nd. Based on what I saw and heard, if Bush received even 10% of the vote at this location, I would be shocked. All day, I saw people who were struggling every day just to get to the next make heroic efforts to come out and vote our incompetent incumbent out of office, yearning for a new leader who might give them some glimmer of hope, some opportunity to not be exploited by the system.

It's absolutely heartbreaking corrupt, greedy bastards stole their votes. Donate to help save democracy for all of us, but especially for those whose livelihoods depend on it.

there were not much options to choose from.. and i am from europe. so :)

hope you get the recount

Greets from a German

Having someone from another country helping us save democracy - WOW.
Thank you so much for putting a huge smile on my face. It's been a bad day here and you made it a whole lot better.

Greetings back to Germany! I've been there and I love it. :)

for $50 and a big KICK.

NOTE: They don't accept American Express. I tried twice and it wouldn't process my payment.

:kick:

nt

or any idea what the deadline is?

and with info on how things are going and when they will proceed with the recount.

i thought i was done after howard dean, john kerry, the dccc, moveon, act etc LOLOL

America is too good to leave to BushCo.

:yourock:

That's what! :D

:kick:

I hope they met the total.

it must mean there is a lot of traffic going there, but still I would want the site to be functional so that ppl can use it.

I also sent to BBV, Help America Recount, and Alliance for Democracy. I sure hope the Democratic Nat'l Committee chips in on this if there is still a shortfall, because this musician and student is tapped out.:nopity:

donations to Clark, Kerry twice, local democratic headquarters and this and I'm about done.

We probably would have reached the $150,000 by now if so many of weren't tapped out from our pre-election donations.

Thanks.

And kicking.

$144,464! Good job guys.

I want you all to know that the Ohio recount will DEFINITELY take place. Remember, they only needed around 110,000 for the actual recount. The rest was to cover the expenses and is estimated. They have already raised more than enough for the recount to go forward!!! The rest is simply for expense budget. But by all means, let's get them the rest of the way there!!!!

again.... Hope this comes through!

It looks like they might make it, but I will contribute more if I have to.

at a bad time for this site to be down.... (1:46am et)

Anyone know how to get ahold of the cobb people?

Are you and the other orgs working on the recount pooling your efforts?

:kick:

and its over the top.
