Hi friends! We should introduce ourselves...
We crowdfund for underfunded Dem nominees for MO state leg – who run in some of the reddest parts of MO.
We've been at this since 2017, supporting Dems in every corner of the state.
If you believe Dems should fight everywhere, we should be friends. 💙

There’s 1,000 times more chatter about the Maine senate race in a year than about Maine’s ballot measure in 3 weeks that’d bring voter ID and crack down on mail voting… maybe let’s start there??? boltsmag.org/maine-questi...
A Ballot Measure Targets Mail Voting in Maine - Bolts
Question 1, on the November ballot, would set up a barrage of new restrictions on absentee ballots that would considerably affect older voters and people with disabilities.

NO Republican should ever go unopposed & with our giving community's help, we'll support every underfunded Democratic candidate running for TN state gov in 2026.

The best thing to do is start organizing at the local level and make sure you have candidates running in every race, at every level in every election. Nothing is more demoralizing than seeing a ballot with 8 Republicans running unopposed. Also the local county party has to be visible 24/7/365
On Tuesday, we showed what was possible for Democrats in the Deep South.💙

Your Cheat Sheet to the 2025 General Elections - Bolts

A central reason we're in this mess is that the final GOP budget is going to be full of ugly, deeply unpopular stuff - exploding deficits, destructive tariffs, cuts to health care/clear energy/food, supersizing ICE, tax cuts for billionaires - that Rs simply don't want to take responsibility for. 1/
🚨“…Jennifer Boysko donated $5,000…bringing the total to over $6,500.
This was followed by contributions by…other…legislators.
…Senator Warner made a contribution…
…this created the momentum for us to reach $116,000 in less than a month.”🌟🔥

This is What a Hero Looks Like
Jennifer Boysko is a Virginia State Senator whose story embodies what we are trying to do here with the Virginia Value Pack 27 (now up to over $116,000, just $19,000 short of the $135,000 goal). Here’...

From Hopium:
- Trump enters the budget debate in a weak position. He and his agenda are very unpopular, his government is failing and polling suggests he and the Rs will be blamed for a damaging shutdown
- A great new intv with Alaska Dem Chair Eric Croft 👇

📣 I've also created a SECOND VA fundraising page focusing on the REDDEST districts in the state.
Most of these Dems won't win, but funding them means they can run competitive races & force VA Republicans to defend "safe" turf.

" @cgreen2024.bsky.social said she understands most resources should be directed at those in competitive or potentially flippable seats, but says a little bit would go a long way for candidates like herself.
BINGO. No one's saying longshot Dems should get *equal* funding, but they need SOME.
