Democrats Shatter Fundraising Records In Georgia
December 24, 2020 at 11:30 pm EST By Taegan Goddard

“Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock shattered fundraising records by hauling in more than $100 million each in the past two months, significantly outraising GOP Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler in the final stretch of the two Georgia Senate races that will decide control of the chamber next month,” Politico reports.

“The massive fundraising for the two Democrats was driven largely by small-dollar donations, continuing the pattern this year of the party’s Senate candidates tapping into online donors across the country to fund their challenger campaigns, although Democrats underperformed expectations in November despite the fundraising edge.”

1. Wonderful news . . .

but alas, this is a red state overall and were in total shock of the outcome of the presidential race. Numbers matters. We must vote because our lives do matter.

2. I find this distressing

There is so much need out there. People are hungry. What does it say about our society when so much money is available to ultimately enrich corporate media in one place, for one election? I understand the importance of taking the Senate, but our priorities are so screwed up.

3. I think many more needs will be addressed if we get

these Dems in the Senate.

6. Whew! The news of Moscow Mitch and others dumping money in GA was scary.

We shouldn't let up, though.
