Sen. Sanders Demands FBI Investigate Whether Kavanaugh Lied to Congress

178. Again Actblue is a mere conduit

You can donate to Actblue directly if you want (as a treasurer of a PAC, I get a number of requests from Actblue) but most people use Actblue to make a donation to the candidate. You are not donating to Actblue but you are making a donation to a candidate using Actblue as a conduit. Actblue did not raise $10 million for candidates. These donations were raised by the candidates directly and citizens used Actblue as a conduit. It is true that Actblue processed $10 million in donations for Democrats but it is not correct to claim that Actblue raised $10 million

As for the $10 million in donations on Friday, today is the last FEC reporting cutoff before the midterms and most candidates have been busy. The Kavanaugh delay may have helped donations but these donations could also be due to the FEC reporting deadline and the blue wave. I know that several congressional candidates are pushing hard to see if they can qualify for the DCCC Red to Blue program.
