Anyone else see the new fundraising counter?

Interesting. It's on the campaign website. Does that mean no more lady liberty? Are they changing tactics mid stream?
 
It's still there... click "Raising To Win" to the left.

I'm not sure what the "Broadcast Freedom" is for? Either to cover the ads they are already playing or to cover a new bunch of ads I assume.
 
They probably realize that you have to change up the front page once in a while to keep people riled up.
 
Cool, I didn't notice the other one was still there. I guess this is just a way to make things interesting and to give people an option as to where their donation goes.

Exactly. The money is still all being added to the overall total. This just provides a shorter-term goal, since we appeared to be doing so lousy with the long-term goal.
 
Just put $25 into the new counter. I like seeing my name on the screen. I am going to use that to convince some others to donate. "Watch your name!!" It should sell.
 
Apparently they felt a need to speed up donations. Considering how far off goal we are, I don't blame them. The thing is, they send out those emails and donations crank for a day and then die off again. Personally, I would follow up those emails with another saying "If you haven't donated..." and try to get the procrastinators to put in their 2 cents and then I'd follow it up again a couple of days later with the same message, and keep reminding people by email thta the campaign needs ALL of it's supporters to chip in. If EVERYONE on the meetups, alone, were to contribute a lousy $15 a week, the 12 mil goal would have been EASY.
