Congratulations, DK! From McClatchy News:
Meet the Democratic Party’s new kingmaker – a liberal blog.
… The website’s online fundraising pitch collected $400,000 for Jon Ossoff in a single week, more than some candidates for the House of Representatives raise in a year. Eventually, donations totaled about $1.6 million.

Since Georgia, the site has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for another Democratic House candidate in a special election, Rob Quist in Montana. And it spearheaded an effort to raise money against Republican lawmakers who voted for the American Health Care Act, collecting more than $1 million.
That’s enormous money – the kind that has not gone unnoticed by Democratic and even Republican officials in Washington. And it has meant that, in the early days of the Trump Era, there’s been no better news for a Democratic candidate than the seal of approval from Daily Kos Elections.
Kudos to David Nir, Jeff Singer, and Stephen Wolf — nice work! And to the whole DK community, for being heard.
