Every Senator that stands tomorrow gets a check from me.
It's not much--$100. But I pledge it to EVERY single Dem senator who stands up tomorrow for fair elections.

I hope I am totally broke by this time tomorrow.

4. Good deal.
I'm very curious to see now how many checks I'll be writing out tomorrow.

Since there aren't campaigns going on, does it just go to some general fundraising account for that senator?

7. Fund raising never stops.
Question to insiders: Is there some master web site for the campaign's and PACS of our senators.

3. I'm prepared to dip into savings if I need to.
I probably won't (sadly) but I'm prepared to.

To my mind, any senator who stands up tomorrow feels the way I do and isn't so afraid of repukes that they won't stand up for voting integrity.

6. That's fine.
Do what you can.

Unfortunately, I don't hold much hope for you or I going broke over it, but I mean it, absolutely. I will be SO fucking proud of ANY Dem senator that stands up for this tomorrow, I'll be writing and mailing the check IMMEDIATELY.

It's not that they need the paltry $100 so much, but more of a way for me to say THAT'S THE WAY YOU DO IT!
