Just matched $665! I'll keep matching through Monday: hope everyone has a great weekend!

Receipt of my matching contribution is attached.

Thanks for the help in sending some $ down to Texas to support a redistricting non-profit and avoid a GOP gerrymander! Such an important issue that will shape D.C. for the next 11 years.

This article's headline pretty well sums up why I believe in funding support for this issue: "Most voters don’t pay a lot of attention to the redrawing of political maps every 10 years. That’s just the way legislators like it."

We had 18 donations that helped run my bill up to $665! . I'll keep matching until Monday evening.

It may be had to fathom, but the evils of gerrymandering has become Arnold's bailiwick.

Somehow, someway, if a fire could be lit and get Arnold interested, his voice speaking out about against gerrymandering would be priceless.

Just an idea.
