FEEDBACK: Have has anyone taken action as a result of my canddiate posts?

This is a request for feedback. I am trying to connect candidates with activists and wonder if anyone has taken action as a result of my posts, ranging from volunteer efforts to talking to a friend/relative. Is there anything I can do differently? Thanks.

to my attention multiple races that can use my monetary support.

So KEEP doing what you are doing!

Maybe even do a post listing all the close races that need our financial support.

Most of us are knowledgable about our local races but it's good to find out about others. I have donated to a few but most of my money is going locally to candidates I'm working for.

Thanks for your efforts.

a Koch backed corrupt (r) who could really use some more help. We need to flip the Arkansas state house in a big way. Bob Ballinger is all in for the constitutional convention to amend our constitution to enshrine corps and enslave people. Jim Wallace is the democrat in district 97 ar race.

Districts. I’ve lived in many of them. I donate to local Dems and let them put signs in my yard. I live across the street from our voting hall.

There are a lot of races going on, and a lot of them don't get much nationwide attention.
