Today was a very good day. Because today we broke $500,000 raised for Republican candidates, committees, and causes.
This may not seem like a lot of money given the fact that the Democratic counterpart, ActBlue, boldly notes on its website that it has raised more than $63M for their candidates.
However, it's important to remember that ActBlue raised about $790K in its first election cycle -- 2004. What that means is that we're within reach of beating or matching what they did in our first election cycle.
Here's a promise: We'll never, ever stop trying to beat the Democrats online. Sure, they had a head start but at least we're in their rearview mirror.
Here's where we stand:
- Total: $501,427.45
- Donors: 7,466
- Avg donation: $67.16
