Thank You from El Tinklenberg
To all who have supported our campaign, from the early days last year to as recently as a few hours ago: thank you. We would not be in the position we are in today without your help.

You stood with us because you believed that Minnesotans deserved better than the extremism and divisiveness that Congresswoman Michele Bachmann brings, and which our entire country now knows. You believed we could work together across party lines to create jobs, revive our economy, and repair our failing infrastructure. You believed this race was about more than Democrats and Republicans – that it was about moving forward, together, to find solutions that will improve the future for all Minnesotans.

Despite the recent national attention (and a very busy weekend) these remain the things that matter most in this race, and these are the challenges we will continue to address in the sixteen days remaining before Election Day. Now we are closer than ever to making our hope a reality.

I can’t thank you enough.

Sincerely,

El Tinklenberg

1. I just read my email like that too. I sent him a little note of
encouragement back. I think it's great that he is acknowledging our contributions.

4. Speak out ET, LOUD and clear. Don't pull any punches. Talk about closed-minded

bigotry, intolerance, and hate being FIRST, not "country first" with MB.

5. What's the latest total on the money bomb? Anyone know?
It must be well over half a million, counting Act Blue and his own campaign website.

6. As of today:
Update: $438,346.57. That's how much El Tinklenberg says has flooded in so far. He's aiming for half a million.

8. I'm pretty sure I saw that same $438K total reported yesterday afternoon
I believe his campaign released that $438K figure yesterday. And the ACT Blue total was just approaching $200K at the time, so his total was a bit more than twice the ACT Blue amount.
