Thank you to the hundreds of committed supporters who have donated to Marty’s campaign—his first fundraising quarter contributions totaled over $800,000!
The results prove that the community’s grassroots efforts are paying off—nearly 60% of the donations were for $250 or less, which shows that every dollar counts.
We are very excited and encouraged by the overwhelming support that Marty has received so far. As we enter the third quarter of the 2008 Congressional race, which is the second quarter of Marty’s campaign due to a late start, we ask for your continued support, as there are numerous ways to volunteer or participate in the campaign.
A simple yet effective way to support Marty is to continue spreading the word. Consider hosting a coffee hour, inviting friends to become Facebook supporters, talking with family and friends, sharing links to Marty’s website, or telling others to check out a sneak preview of his new TV ad. Dozens of supporters walked with Marty in several Independence Day parades, and the momentum our volunteers continue to build is exciting.
Many thanks to those who have already offered to help. We are working to increase our ability to engage more volunteers, and we look forward to working directly with community members who believe in putting people before politics.
