John, we’ve been receiving a lot of questions about Friday’s End-of-Quarter fundraising deadline, so here’s the lowdown:
Q: Aren’t all fundraising deadlines important? Why is this one such a big deal?
A: Yes, of course — all fundraising deadlines serve as important benchmarks and provide the bulk of DDF’s resources. But this is the first quarterly goal of 2023, a year ripe with big elections that will have HUGE consequences.
Q: Isn’t 2023 an “off-year?”
A: While there isn’t a presidential election this year, there are still a lot of important elections in 2023 — we have to expand our majorities in the Virginia and New Jersey state legislatures, elect Democratic governors in Kentucky, Mississippi, and Louisiana, and flip the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
Q: How big of an impact can my $10 or $20 donation really have?
A: MASSIVE. The GOP might have the support of dark money PACs and corporate billionaires, but we have a movement of tens of thousands of grassroots supporters who donate what they can, when they can. And together, we can overcome the odds.
Q: What can I do to help?
A: You can chip in $25 (or whatever you can) right now! Your support will help us elect pro-choice, pro-democracy Democrats up and down the ballot in 2023 and beyond.
