During this relative lull in the campaign season, I’m going to focus some energy on helping to raise money for the TexBlog PAC. We’d like to show some strong numbers for the June 30 reporting date (there is no March 31 reporting deadline for state campaigns and PACs). As it stands right now, we have a bit over $8500 cash on hand, and we want to get that over the $10,000 mark so we can start helping candidates now.
So I’m asking for your help. We’d like to get 50 new donors over the next five days for TexBlog PAC, with a goal of hitting that $10K milestone along the way. If you’d like to help us reach that goal, and get an early start on supporting the candidates who will take back the Texas House and send Tom Craddick back to the back mike, please visit our ActBlue page and make a donation. We will be announcing our first endorsees soon, with more to follow afterwards. The goal there is a minimum of six campaigns to help, with a minimum donation of $5000 to each.
Ambitious? Sure. But we know the support is out there, and we know the enthusiasm for making Tom Craddick a former Speaker will help us carry the day. Please give us a hand now and together we can make that happen. Thank you very much.
Wow, you guys are big spenders. I am sure Tom Craddick is shaking in his boots at the thought of TexBlog PAC dollars flooding into House races.
As are we shaking in ours at your withering assault. Let me know how much you raise for your candidates, and we’ll see who does better in November.
