my sister is running. help us buy some yard signs.
i am counting on your help here, du.
my sister, sheila rutledge, is running for a county board seat in formerly solid red dupage county in illinois. the county is part of il 6, which is on everybody's list of flippable districts. the dupage dems are intent on flipping the county board as well as sending peter ro-scum home to spend more time w his family.
now, if you want to flip a big seat, the most bang for your buck is to support the downticket races. every voter that sheila brings out is a vote to flip the whole district.
sheila has 38k dem voters in her district. she is out there knocking doors, attending candidate forums, wearing out her shoes. but this is a shoestring campaign. every dollar works hard.
we need some yard signs. we need name recognition.
i think we should get a brazillion. sheila think we should get what we have the money for, which, right now, is about 500.
that's gonna help in the primary, but, i mean, 38k voters.
so please, du, step up to the plate.
obviously i am going to dig as deep as i can for her, but she hates to ask me for money, or let me pay for my ideas.
so here is the deal.
for every donation we get here at du, i will match it dollar for dollar. she cant say no to that.
every dollar counts. yard signs are about $4/ea at that quantity we can afford now. so you can see exactly what even a $4 donation can do.
i want to get at least 1000. that gets the price down another buck.
please show that legendary du love, and chip in what you can afford.

if you can't chip in, i understand. but please knr for some visibility here.
please? yes, i am begging. (it's my job)
