The "Stand with Rand" Money Bomb is underway! Tracking thread

[Crashland]

When did the ticker actually go up? From looking at this article Rand only had just under $24k by 9am, so I don't think the ticker could have been up for that long before then.

Either way I'd say they are respectable numbers, not as much as I personally was hoping but it's not a disaster by any means. I'm sure he will continue raising decent amounts throughout the week

Yeah with major events every day all week the money will keep coming in

My father and his girlfriend (a Clinton Republican and a Clinton Democrat just turned independent) asked me for 2 Rand yard signs (1 each and it is personally a major victory) and got a pol shirt for myself. Hopefully these transactions count towards the money bomb. I remember they did for Ron's campaign when I bought stuff.

How come we can donate through PayPal for the money bomb but can't in the store?

 

[lakerssuck92]

I wasn't going to donate to Rand because I wasn't sure about how solid he was on foreign policy but after seeing that disgusting ad the Neocons threw at him today I'll gladly throw some money down for Rand.

24-hour total (based on 0000-2359 EST) was $640K. Less than expected for announcement day.

Media coverage was extremely favorable as compared to his father. This was as good as could be expected.

The overriding purpose of the money bombs in 2008 was to *force* the media to cover the Ron Paul campaign. They were ignoring him as much as possible, but couldn't ignore the number-one fundraiser. There isn't as pressing a need for everyone to donate on the same day (or at all, really) for the Rand 2016 campaign. The media coverage is there. Also, everyone is eight years poorer. Thanks, Obama!

Anyone have numbers on how many individual donations were received?

I ordered $103 in merch. Hopefully they are adding those sales to the ticker.

How is Ted Cruz with no website or gear outraising us (he raised 2 million in 3 days)? I think he may have drank some of our milkshake.

I've been thinking the same thing. It'll be interesting to see who are Cruz's donors.

Has that amount been verified? Or is it just according to his own campaign?

i bought a load of crap for myself and ordered some yard signs for a huge bernie sanders socialist buddy of mine hehe...so about $100 total.

neo-con donations...

The donations are still coming in pretty steadily. Ron's moneybombs were pretty much over after one day.

Yep! It takes 2 days for Coinbase to clear my bitcoins out of MyVault, in another 8 hours I'll be able to buy my shirt, sign, car sticker along with a donation will be supporting Rand toady!

That's what his campaign was telling the media that first week. We'll have to take it for what it's worth I guess.

Agreed. I see a lot of folks not happy with the amount so far but I see it differently. In my opinion Ron Paul raised the majority of his money through these money bombs and that was it. I feel like Rand Paul will have steady donations coming in throughout the entire course of his campaign.

I think people also forgot that the 2011/12 moneybombs were not that big compared to the 2007 ones. In 2007, I honestly don't even know how we pulled it off. But that was a different time. The internet loved Ron Paul back then, even communities that are now considered far left like Reddit.

How long is he going to keep the ticker up?
