BOOM: $250,000 raised for STATE LEGISLATIVE Democrats so far! HELP KEEP IT GOING AT BLUE24.ORG! [1]

If you go through all 50 of my state legislative fundraising pages , the total will actually come to around ~$267,000, but that also includes around $1,400 raised for President Biden as well as around $15,500 raised for other organizations , mostly Voters of Tomorrow & the abortion/reproductive rights ballot initiatives in Arizona, Florida and Montana.

(Note: This includes the 4 states which held their legislative elections last year).

If you remove those, as of this writing the total raised for actual Democratic state legislative candidates, Dem state parties & Dem legislative caucus committees comes to just over $250,000, broken out as shown above.

(Again, Virginia and New Jersey both held their legislative elections in 2023, as did MS & LA).

Other noteworthy data points:

Of that ~$250K, it breaks out almost exactly 80/20 ($200K / $50K) between the actual candidates themselves and the state Democratic Parties & Dem legislative caucuses.

I've raised money for about 590 candidates running as Democrats for state legislative office so far this cycle, averaging $340 apiece.

This ranges from as little as $1.00 for a handful of candidates to as much as $4,800 for a few of the Virginia candidates.

Of the candidates running this year, the candidate I've raised the most so far is Howard Hunter III of North Carolina $2,975)

Once I fill in the remaining states & districts, the total number of candidates could potentially grow to as many as ~730, although it will likely come in somewhere around 650 or so.

I'm well on my way towards my eventual target of raising at least $1.5 MILLION for state legislative Democrats by November. Help me achieve that by picking a page, picking some candidates & donating today!
