Team Warren at Daily Kos is pleased with our progress: Thank you, Readers and Members of Daily Kos! Fundraiser $60K, countless volunteers, Followers 454, donations 1,500. Let’s persist with Persisting Elizabeth! Frequent visitors to Daily Kos support Elizabeth Warren. Indivisible’s Scorecard. What if?
Where we stand: Team Warren at Daily Kos
Our Daily Kos group supports Elizabeth Warren. We’ve raised over $60,000 for her national campaign. We’ve volunteered at the local level, canvassing and phonebanking. Our members include 454 people Following our group, watching and waiting for diaries to appear in their Streams (Daily Kos inboxes).
On the day after last Wednesday’s debate we raised at least $6,368 via 166 donations. On that same day, her campaign reported raising $5M, and since we raised more than $5K, we raised more than 1/1000th of her intake that day. That’s an amazing amount. I say “at least $6,368” because many people continue to make their ActBlue donations using methods they have already set up. They don’t use our ActBlue page. That’s perfectly okay, we don’t want to inconvenience anyone. However, every member of Daily Kos gets bragging rights about our fundraising total.
Frequent visitors to Daily Kos support Elizabeth Warren
Based on kos’s polls, a majority of frequent visitors and core members of Daily Kos support Elizabeth Warren for President, as I have said before. After kos posts a poll, Elizabeth's numbers are usually near or over 50% for a couple of hours — Frequent visitors to Daily Kos vote first. But after a few hours, the results shift because messages go out on social media and by email asking supporters of candidates to flood the vote (and there is nothing wrong with that). Preliminary evidence supports my theory.
These truths are self-evident:
- Not all members of Daily Kos support Elizabeth Warren.
- Some readers and members of Daily Kos support more than one candidate.

Our campaign on ActBlue is a crowd-sourcing group effort, and Daily Kos Staff have not endorsed any candidate for President.
kos:
‘My biases are clear—I’ve made it clear from the very beginning that we will do best in 2020 if we have a woman leading the ticket. After Harris’ premature exit from the race, Warren is the party’s best bet to nominate someone reflective of the party’s base. But her ability to consolidate the left will depend for the most part on her performance in the early states, and that is unfortunate.’ [12/31/2019]
‘Buckle down, people, and prepare to fight like never before. Everything is on the line this year. Everything.’ [1/7/2020]

Invitation to Community:
Yes, I’m using “community” as a verb. The Daily Kos group EWarren2020 supports Senator Warren’s campaign. We avoid being negative about other candidates in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary (one of the principles of her campaign).
Everyone is welcome in our diaries. However, we don’t welcome petty bickering about or personal attacks on candidates in our diaries.
In the words a favorite Kosack, newpioneer, "We're not responsible for the actions of others who may offend, insult, or attempt to sow discord and disunity — that’s on them. We are responsible for our own words and actions — that’s 100% on us."
We ask all group members, supporters of Elizabeth Warren, and people interested in both her campaign and other campaigns and Democratic Party unity to ignore negativity from other campaigns' supporters. As Michelle Obama said, "When they go low, we go high." Let's respond to their negativity with respect and humor, and let’s create peace. (Recipes and cat pictures may help.) "Doing no harm costs us nothing ... pie fights will cost us everything." [newpioneer]
We are doing as much as we can to support Elizabeth Warren in the primary, and we plan to support our ultimate Democratic nominee. [Thanks to newpioneer for the quotes and concepts of this section so far. 2t]
This is a community diary whose purpose is to support Elizabeth Warren in myriad ways. More than 450 Followers, more than 1,500 donations, more than $60,000 raised by our group! Many members are busy phonebanking and canvassing for Elizabeth.
Indivisible gives Elizabeth Warren a rating of 95, the highest rating of any of the presidential candidates. The next-ranked candidate is 6 points below her. If you come into the diary to quibble, you are wasting your time. We are committed and happy workers and volunteers. The only way you are going to support your candidate is by supporting your candidate, not by denigrating ours. Nobody is perfect, and all plans will be subject to other branches of government: We know that.
When you comment, you help keep our diary on the Recommended list longer. We love it when you add relevant content! Thank you, everybody, for your support in these difficult times. For the quibblers, for the assets, for the paid: I’m busy caregiving, and I may not respond to you or acknowledge you. I‘m perennially behind on my real-world duties. ~ Peace and Love ~ 2t
This goes without saying:
A Little Question: What If?
What if histories of the future reveal that readers and members of Daily Kos provided the sparks of enthusiasm and effective effort that ignited Elizabeth Warren's campaign? What if?
Elizabeth needs our support NOW.
Power with, not power over,
2thanks (he, him)
