'One of our Students for Powell just made this donation

and left this note:

Amount: $7.25
---
I'm a college student from Richmond, currently attending James Madison University. I've never seen a more genuine candidate run for office, and it blows my mind that I'll actually get to vote for you in November. I'm donating an hour of my pay that I get from my job at the library here on campus. Good luck!

I have a friend and former co-worker who is also busting her butt for the same goal. You're both an inspiration!!

It is, obviously, VERY important, I'm interested, in a neighboring state, AND I'm retired: DEFINITELY nothing better to do!

I was thinking the same today while I rode my tractor in circles for 9 hours. I can't really afford 1 hour of wages a week, but I'm going to contribute it anyway. I'll just lose a few pounds in the next 2 months, which I need to do anyway.
