Lots of quiet DUers.

I was struck by two facts recently. One, that Inslee has been at the top of the DU ActBlue list, in both money and number of contributers (so no rich DUers to blame) for several months, by a VERY big margin. And then a post I made simply announcing that the ELCA has declared itself a sanctuary church body got 153 recs, I think the most I've ever gotten, but very few replies.

Neither of these mind sets seem reflected in posts.

Do we have any stats about the number of DU members vs posters?

And very proud of my denomination for taking a stand. I’m currently on vacation and not reading DU as much as usual, but would have rec’d for sure!

(actually it was just LCA back in my day), but I too was happily surprised and, yes, proud of the stand they took.
