A comparison to 2024 [View all]


Two years ago we raised almost $44,000 for Tony. See below.



For that same seat this year we have raised only $4,401 so far. See below.



This is known as the Blue Dot district nationally. It is considered a must win for control of the House. I'm wondering why fundraising for Denise is so far behind what Tony raised at this point. We have more candidates to choose from in 2026. Do we as a group only have so much to spread around to the candidates? Thoughts on this?
