Poll question: Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is!
Have you donated to the campaign of your candidate(s) of choice?

(In the last 12 months)

If not, what's your excuse?

1. Gave my first donation ever yesterday!
$25 to Dean. I'll give him more before it's all said and done.

5. Never contributed before this but...
... have given $175 to Dean so far. And that's a lot for me.

6. We've made donations to a couple of different candidates...
And I'll be pleased to send support to whoever our nominee is after the shakeout. Any damn one of 'em, I tell ya!

7. I don't have a candidate of choice yet
but I've given $25 to Kucinich and $25 to Carol Moseley-Braun because, while I understand neither has a chance to win, I believe that both of them have voices which need to be heard. By the time it is all over, I'm sure I will have given several hundred dollars to various candidates.

8. $200 to Dean...
...but I'm one of those Democratic white college kids the media likes to portray Dean's base as, so. ;)

Later.

9. Nothing, but I have an extremely good excuse
namely, that it's illegal for me to donate.
