The party needs unity and money, so I am trying to organize a fundraising effort – a moneybomb – for June 3rd.
June 3rd is, as most readers here will know, is the day that Montana and South Dakota will hold the final elections for the Democratic presidential nomination. When the nomination campaign come to a close, many people will be focusing on who's winning and who's losing, but I thought that date would be a good day to focus instead on party unity. No matter who we supported for the nomination it would be a perfect time to come together and show support for the party.
And because this race has been so long and so expensive, it has diverted a lot of money that would have otherwise found it's way to the national party. And right now, the DNC is badly trailing the RNC in cash. The party will need money to support the eventual nominee and to continue it's fifty state strategy.
I've created a website to promote this effort:

I'm just getting this effort started, but I'm hoping this is something the netroots can get behind. (I figure if the Ron Paul people can pull it off, surely dems can too!)
I meant South Dakota and Montana, not Puerto Rico. Can you edit these diaries?
(*^_^*)
electioninspection would be glad to help with the effort.
