So, I want to donate $250.mo to Democratic races in 2022 and 2024.

[OAITW r.2.0]

I would like to find a PAC that will distribute the $ based on most effective outcomes. Biased towards Senate for Democratic control.

I'd prefer to "send it and forget it" don't want even more solicitations emails

Any suggestions>

1. PM Omaha Steve...he handles this stuff very well.

3. I've used Steve's links on Ukraine donations.

In fact, I'd like to elevate Steve's Group to a forum level visibility. He could do some creative things with pinned posts and fundraising post/threads. Really important to get the cash pipeline opened, starting now.


Act Blue is the financial linchpin for Democrats and their donors. They do it well.

I wonder if any Act Blue folks post here? If so, here is my vision on how AB could blow u[ the whole friggin fundraising game.

* I Have $250.00/mo to invest in political candidates from 5/1/22 to 11/7/2024.

* I want to go to Act Blue and see every Democratic candidate, scored by strategic value, where i can assign % of monthly payment to a variety of candidates as I see fit.

* Act Blue invoices me once per month. They distribute as per my % allocation.

* I can change the allocation on this matrix monthly if I want.


{ May make an OP for greater visibility )

On edit: I have to believe that AB has the Back Office Support structure in place to develop and roll this out quickly.

2. well, you sure wont get less emails.

but the most bang for your buck is down ticket races. nobody comes out to vote for a dem downticket and doesnt vote the top of the ticket.
they run on shoestring and shoe leather.

5. Sadly, you will continue to be harassed by fundraising emails unless you unsubscribe repeatedly...

However, I applaud your determination to donate monthly. I know you’ll get some good ideas here.

Keep track of your monthly credit card statements. I only tried doing a recurring donation once, and assumed it would end when my candidate won. It didn’t end, and I failed to catch it for 3 or 4 months.

You can make it stop by challenging the charge with your credit card company. In my case, I took advantage of the fact that my Visa card is handled via Chase Bank, so I dropped in and talked to a human being. That nice person got the whole thing done on the phone and computer in minutes. I’m still very glad my candidate won, and don’t blame anybody. But — if I do it again I’ll be sure to keep better track.

Thanks for supporting Dems!

6. Thanks.....Act Blue should create a marketplace for Democratic Campaigns

Local/State/Federal elections for every state, Key Issues / seat importance. One stop shopping.

In 2022, I'd weight to State and Local, I'd reweight for 2024 State and National elections.
