This is our third $ bomb and it will be our best yet!!!

Donate to DU for Bernie at Act Blue here: https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/duforbernie


So far we have 16 donations for just over $500 already!!!

Edit: Our first $1,000 day period!

Edit 2: MAKE THAT OUR FIRST $2,000 DU for Bernie day! We had $12,950 from 430 donations when the $ bomb started!

Edit 3: With a little over 3 hours to go, we are getting close to 100 donations and $4,000 raised just today. Our average has been a steady $3,000 a month.

The first $ bomb donation came in at 08 September, 2015 at 04:08 AM (eastern)

Bernie's campaign uses Act Blue too. This just keeps a total of $ donated by DUers and friends.

All the donated $ to Bernie goes to Bernie except for the actual charge card fee by law: http://support.actblue.com/faq#q15

Fees all vendors pay to use your credit card from a vendors perspective: http://paysimple.com/credit_card_rates_explained.html

IF you give a tip it goes to Act Blue, the most successful Democratic $ raising PAC for their in house expenses like rent, payroll, IT, etc.

5. I Have A Two-Fer... It's My Son's Brithday...

I've already set up to contribute a small monthly amount. I just wish he would open the eye of some of our very own Democrats would realize that millions & millions of people are behind him!

Really ticks me off! Money helps, but he's going to need delegates, that's a HUGE problem!
