Jack, Democrats are waiting with bated breath to see who Kamala Harris is going to pick as her vice president—the announcement could come any day now. (You can vote in the Daily Kos veepstakes poll here if you haven't already!)

Here's the thing, though: No matter who is announced, we need your support to put the Harris ticket over the top in November. Daily Kos is working to recruit 100,000 volunteers to help Get Out The Vote, but this isn't a cheap or easy thing to do. Staff time and tech needs are real costs, and then there's opportunity cost too—i.e., we could spend this time doing something that makes us money, but this election is far too important to sit on the sidelines.

We can't do this without you. Daily Kos is a small, independent outlet. We don't have billionaire backers or big corporate sponsors. We have you. Donations of just a few bucks at a time from readers like you make up a supermajority of our income. Our ability to run this program literally depends on your support. That's why I'm asking:

Jack, can you please donate $5 right now to help offset the cost of Daily Kos' Get Out The Vote campaign so that we can recruit 100,000 volunteers this fall?

Thank you,
Michael Langenmayr, Daily Kos
