Drum roll please (look at what the DU has done)


We rolled over a new figure in $ raised for Democrats. This does NOT include inactive accounts from years past like Bernie. Our actual total raised is over 3.5 million dollars! Edit to add that we started raising $ in 2015.

Below is what I see when I log into ActBlue.

I donate, but I'm guilty of not going through DU to do it. From now on, I will definitely go through here!

Well done, everyone!

And to Omaha Steve

I'll see if I can go through here from now on. So many texts and emails I don't know how it all works because I've got my own ActBlue.

ActBlue does not sell your info. But candidates buy, sell, and trade donor lists.

Hi Steve,

Thanks so much for reaching out!

I'm happy to confirm that ActBlue will only share your information with the specific committees, campaigns, or organizations that you have contributed to. We share the information that they need to comply with relevant campaign finance laws and regulations, as well as your email address so that they can get in touch with you.

We don’t sell or otherwise transfer your information to any third parties. We also do not solicit on behalf of the organizations and campaigns that use our platform. If you or your donors are receiving solicitations from them, you will need to unsubscribe directly from the organization or campaign. I hope that this information is helpful.

Please feel free to be in touch if there’s anything else that I can do!

Best,
Sophie

I am SO proud to have been a small part of that (and I do mean small, as my budget for donations is much more limited this year than in the last few election cycles).

I've always been really proud of our act blue numbers. Aside from our amazing conversations, that's some political power.

3 million. Well done Omaha Steve!!!
