Earlier this month, we announced our upcoming column with Rick Perlstein
covering the 2024 elections, and the fundraising numbers we needed to
meet to make it happen.

Thanks to readers like you, we received an incredible response! Our
wonderful community stepped up to help start off this fundraising
campaign with a bang.

But we still have a long way to go to reach our goal of $200,000 by the

in today can make a huge difference in helping power our newsroom.

Can you chip in today to help us reach our goal? >>
