D.U. Donations: 982 people out of 127,588 registered users. Can't we do better?

(as of 6:00 pm EST., 9-17)

The average donation works out to just over $64.00! But only 982?

$10.00 anyone?

1. K&R

2. I still want to know is that number includes only active registrations,

or also those who have been tombstoned.

[Auggie]

3. Even if active registrations were half that it's still disappointing

[DesertFlower]

6. i agree.

i know some people are having money problems right now, but i think most of us can afford at least $10.00.

[Auggie]

12. I see so much frustration here -- what a way to stick it to the Repukes

[liberalmuse]

4. I'd donate again, but...

it would still be at 982. :(

[Auggie]

7. I wonder how many repeat donations aren't in that total

[DesertFlower]

8. i wasn't sure how that worked.

i've donated 4 or 5 times through this site and about 6 through obama's site.

5. I donated, but not through this site. n/t

9. What's the point of donating through DU? I've donated a bunch of times but never here.

Why does it matter?

[DesertFlower]

10. makes you kinda wonder

about hillary's supporters. she has that $22 million debt and 18 million voters. if each person gave $1.50 her debt would be retired.

11. I do not put my credit card online

ergo, I mail in donations. @$500 worth so far.

[DesertFlower]

13. i use my credit card

on-line. i've been doing it for years. so far -- no problem. i do monitor my credit cards every day. i bring them up on-line and make sure every charge is kosher. i also check my bank accounts every day.

14. Unfortuanltely not until next month

2500.oo in property taxes due this month.
3k+ in other taxes due by the 20th.

Beans and rice for us for a while.

15. I just donate at his website.

Today for instance, they had a matching donor thing going.

I don't know how the donation through the site works security wise, but I feel safer typing my card numbers directly into Obama's site.

17. The DU donate page is connected to Obama site.

16. Many have donated more than once, like me, making

the average even more pitiful.

[Cha]

18. Rec'd! What about the people who

have donated more than once? :patriot: :patriot:

[nradisic]

19. WTF?

Come on! The first time I ever donated through DU was $50 for Obama. Put your $5 where your mouth is...

[NYDem Observer]

20. I donated $50 through DU 2 weeks ago and still no donor star

What gives?

[Auggie]

21. The donor star is for donating to D.U.

But for what it's worth, I'll give you (and everybody else) five "You Rocks"!!!

:yourock: :yourock: :yourock: :yourock: :yourock:

[RayOfHope]

22. I've donated twice, but forgot to do it through the DU link n/t
