Hey team,
It’s Dan from Harvie HQ. I’m running through our finance numbers ahead of the FEC’s big fundraising deadline, and I thought I’d take a second to explain what that means and why it matters.
(If you already know why this deadline is such a big deal, will you pitch in just $25, $10, or $5 here?)
|
What is the FEC?
It stands for Federal Election Commission. It’s who we report all our fundraising numbers to so they can ensure we’re not breaking any laws!
|
|
What is an FEC end-of-quarter deadline?
Every three months, we send all of those fundraising numbers to the FEC in a big report. Then the FEC makes those numbers public so that citizens have transparency into campaign donations!
|
|
But why does it matter?
We know Brian Fitzpatrick is scared. When those fundraising numbers go public, it’s important that Bob has a strong number to report! The stronger we look, the more scared Brian Fitzpatrick and the NRCC will be.
|
But, John, right now we’re behind where we should be.
We’ve set a goal of raising $17,500 online in these next four days which sounds like a lot, but I think we can do it.
Our average donation is just $16 and we’re sending this email to thousands of supporters like you. If you donate just $16 (or more if you’re feeling generous), we could easily hit our goal by Wednesday at midnight.
| If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process now. |
Thanks for helping us hit our fundraising goal so we can send Bob to Congress to fight for us!
— Dan
