"Are you my angel?"
That's what a Democratic candidate in a super-red district said to Michele when she told him that he'd be getting financial support from our Blue Ohio community.
He was heading to a county fair to walk in the parade with fellow Democrats when he took her call. He was speechless, and grateful, and couldn't wait to share the news.
What we do is practical. Because of Blue Ohio, he (and the other candidates like him that we support) will be able to buy campaign essentials like yard signs, literature, and postcards. So our community's support makes it easier for candidates like him to share a Democratic message, turn out voters, and hold Republicans accountable.
We're proud of what we've done so far. Here's where we're at:
Right now we're able to ensure a funding floor of $5,475.
That means no Democrat running for OH state legislature has less than $5,475 to run their campaign.
We're cutting checks based on our numbers on 9/30. Can you help us reach our goal of boosting our funding floor to $6,000 by chipping in with a one-time donation?
Let's put it into perspective: last cycle, thirteen Ohio state legislative nominees had less than $5k to run their campaign.
This year, because of Blue Ohio, that number is zero.
It's no exaggeration: because of Blue Ohio, someone is getting a knock at the door or a postcard in the mail.
Help us give our nominees the biggest boost we can so they can reach as many voters as possible.
Did you know? There are over 1,100 Blue Ohio members, who hail from all over Ohio (and all over the country). Our monthly donors are invited to monthly meetings with special guests (past guests have included Governor Strickland and actor Ed O'Neill). Those meetings and calls won't end in November.
Because we're a community that's in this for the long haul.
We're tired of Republicans getting free passes, and Democrats feeling left behind – without the support they need to hold Republicans accountable.
We've already changed that... and we launched just a few months ago. And look what we've accomplished!
Now, imagine what we can do with two years!
And then imagine being part of the community that's boosting Dems in the short term, while fixing our long-term challenges –– and changing how we run and recruit Democrats in Ohio.
You can be part of that change. Join us, today – either with your generous one-time donation, or by joining our monthly program here.
Onward, upward, and in solidarity~
