$2.3 million before June 30th

[Catchawave]

John Edwards has done the math, $2.3 million all they need to raise by June 30th to continue the campaign and get the message out. Can you help? If not, that's okay too, as long as you support a DEMOCRAT :D

From today's email:

With just over two weeks before the end of the quarter, it's time for us to talk as a team about what we need to win.

The media is obsessed with the money race, and you're going to hear a lot about that. But we don't need to raise the most—we need to raise enough; enough to get our message of transformational change to voters in Iowa, New Hampshire, and other key states nationwide. If we can raise enough money to do that—we'll have what we need to win.

We've done the math, and we need to raise $2.3 million online before June 30th to pay for all the town halls, phone lines, clip boards, TV ads and late-night pizza for the volunteers that we'll need to get out our message. That's a big goal, but it's real. And together, I know we can achieve it.

Please get us started by contributing what you can today.

What we see over and over again is that when voters learn about the big, specific plans from our campaign, they get excited—they get to work.

Some are working for universal health care, so we never again have to worry about our families getting the care they deserve. Some are working to stop global warming, so that our legacy for our children is not global catastrophe. Others are working to end the war in Iraq, so we can bring our loved ones home and once again offer moral leadership to the world. And still others are working to end the injustice of poverty in America. Because in our America, opportunity should be more than a dream.

If we can reach all the voters who share our values, who are also ready to work hard for the America we believe in, we will win.

But we need to raise enough to make that happen, and that's $2.3 million before June 30th.

Help us get there by giving whatever you can afford today:

His grassroots efforts are paying off - he's gaining support in the mid-west and that's a very good sign. :)
