SurveyUSA. 7/27-30. Likely voters. MoE 3.8% (6/18 results)
Reichert (R) 50 (51)
Burner (D) 44 (45)
Just some float within the MoE, this thing remains tight. Independents split 45/45, while 16 percent of Democrats still support Reichert. Bringing those voters home will be important for Burner’s chances of victory, and to do that, she’ll need cash to deliver her message to her district’s voters.
It’s the end of the month, I was planning on doing a last-minute push to get her over the $150K mark we pledged after her house burned down, so she could focus on putting her life back together rather than fundraising.
Well, heading over to our Orange to Blue ActBlue page, it turns out that the blogosphere blew by that goal — she’s at $159K. So no need for a last minute push to get her over the goal. But this isn’t just a winnable race, but a chance to put a future bona fide and fearless progressive leader in Congress.
Darcy Burner is a candidate seriously worth giving to, regardless of whether we met our goal or not.
