[Omaha Steve]

This is a must win toss up for control of the Senate. Can we raise $100 by midnight?

2. I had a bad experience with ActBlue

I actually donated to a few candidates in 2024, beyond my local and state ones.
I found myself inundated with solicitations for candidates from all over after that.
And they activated a monthly gift for one of my Senators when it was only a one time contribution.
Trying to get them to unfuck their shit was not an easy process. Pretty not caring.
I will not donate to any candidate through ActBlue again. If I can find an “unlinked” way to give, I will.

3. The DU has raised OVER $3.6 MILLION for Democratic candidates over the last 10 or so years!

I have had very few complaints from thousands of donations.

When I accidentally donated $500 when setting up a page, ActBlue had the refund taken care of in less than an hour.

As far solicitation from unknown candidates, ActBlue is not providing your info. It is the candidate's sharing, trading, buying, selling their donor lists. Once your info goes out, your going to get requests for $. See the email below.

Hi Steve,

Thanks so much for reaching out!

I'm happy to confirm that ActBlue will only share your information with the specific committees, campaigns, or organizations that you have contributed to. We share the information that they need to comply with relevant campaign finance laws and regulations, as well as your email address so that they can get in touch with you.

We don’t sell or otherwise transfer your information to any third parties. We also do not solicit on behalf of the organizations and campaigns that use our platform. If you or your donors are receiving solicitations from them, you will need to unsubscribe directly from the organization or campaign. I hope that this information is helpful.

Please feel free to be in touch if there’s anything else that I can do!
