change it, but that would be harder. ActBlue has become the largest Democratic fundraising organization, their contribution screen used to be simple, but has become more complex, I think too complex.

I have contributed through ActBlue since it was a four or five person organization with nothing more than a webportal to solicit campaign donations. I think I took up with them during their first year of existence. I got a Christmas card once signed by it's entire staff a few years back. I think it is a bigger, far more computerized, micro targeting organization now that serves all Democratic candidates, no longer a handful of passionate Democrats wanting to insure that Blue candidates get campaign funds.

One thing that ActBlue started doing that they should undo, is setting the recurring monthly donation as the default - they should stop that asap.
