A great many of the problems you want Dems to magically fix, wouldn't exist in the first place if more people just voted for Dems in the first place.
THAT'S the point. Not to solve problems, which politicians suck at doing. To PREVENT NEW ONES.

but what's the point of voting democrats if they're not going to do something about it?
Leftists aren't criticising the Democrats because they're just as bad as Conservatives, Conservatives are worse, but I already won't vote Conservative. Democrats ask leftists votes, but then don't fix problems

Good for her for actually owning her own role in bringing about the current situation, anyway.
That's a lot more than, say, most people who could have voted for Harris & refused to seem to be willing to do.

No, I appreciate it--it's a fair question; I spend a *ton* of time on the head shots and they do take up a ton of space, but it's served me well for years--people do seem to like putting a face to whoever they're donating to.

Let me put it this way: If they raise $110,000 total but only $6,000 goes to the candidates, that's not a great look.
If they raise $5 million and $4.5M goes to the candidates with another $400K in overhead + their $104K salary, that's totallly reasonable.

I assume you meant something more like this?
The only problem with this is that most of the pages have 3-4 rows of candidates, meaning even less space for more text, but we'll see...

No, it's fine. It might be better not to add anything (I mean, I've raised over $21M to date without a sash/etc, and it lists the logo on the actual pages themselves already).
I just know that people are getting increasingly concerned about scam PACs etc. If this makes it *worse,* forget it!
