AWD's campaign fundraiser begins!
Edited on Mon Sep-01-03 04:24 PM by AWD
The time has come, so I am unveiling my webpage for all to see!

www.jeffseemannforcongress.com is the address. DEMActivist is still tweaking it, so be reminded that this is a demo page until all the text is entered (by me), and the pictures are added. But here's your early look-see!

I now begin a 32-hour fundraiser (one hour for each year my opponent has held office). PLEASE donate what you can to help us get a DUer to Congress. If you can pitch in 5 bucks, that's great. If you can throw more our way, excellent. Your money will go towards electing a candidate that vows never to let the destructive right-wing government take over America again.

www.jeffseemannforcongress.com and click on "Donate". You can donate via PayPal, or send a check through the US Mail. (If you mail a check, please let me know in this thread or at jseemann@neo.rr.com so we can add your donation to the total)

We have set two goals for this fundraiser....2,000 dollars, or 100 separate donors. Let's reach both goals!

Thank you for your support,
Jeff Seemann
Democratic Candidate, 16th District of Ohio, US House Of Representatives

P.S. Please keep this kicked to the top...we'll update the progress as often as we can!

We nailed him, but good!

That was Round 3 between Bush and me. He won Round 1 when he had his goons shuffle me out of OSU Stadium....but he heard us loud and clear for Round 3 today.

16. Pledged on your web page
Check will be in the mail in the morning. At times like this I wish I were a rich wingnut and not a poor Dem. Would finance your whole campaign.

17. There's always hope
Try the lottery

However, I'd rather have small contributions from many than the whole thing from one.

Thank you.

A government-run pyramid scheme.

20. Did I just lose a vote?
You don't want your donation back, I hope.

Just kidding.

I never play the lottery anyway....I could just throw my money in the swere and get the same result.

Illinois is a state of Democrats and we still have the lottery.

32. I'm just happy...
...to know that somebody is willing to donate 50 bucks AND wants me to lick their balls.

I'm certain that person receives the same thing for the same fee often, but just not from me.

39. What a worthless piece of humanity you have listed here.
It is too bad that people who enter the political realm are paid back by some of their fellow citizens with such childish and vitriolic rhetoric. It is proof positive that Satan is here on earth and living beside us.

40. Personally...
....I can laugh it off.

I've clearly scared some Republican. And that gives me power.

I won't let the hatred towards me affect me any way (except to make me stronger)

35. I cannot answer that
Is there a law in your state that prevents minors from contributing?

Because Ohio's law says nothing about accepting from minors...only contributing.

....others to donate for the minors, to avoid any conflict.

Somebody donate these people's money for them.....Goobergunch's too!

49. Alex, I've got you covered.
I think campaign finance laws don't allow you to give money using someone else's name. I know that when I donate to Dean I have to check that the money I'm giving is my own.

And I must say...I am getting LOTS of donations from women.

Something like 85% of the donors are of the female persuasion.
