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

[CPUd]

This one is kinda interesting. If a person giving multiple donations can be counted multiple times in "total_donors", this plot is equal to the derivative of total_amount wrt time:

Are you going to be the successor to ronpaulgraphs.com?

I loved Ron Paul graphs.

 

[NoOneButPaul]

Kind of a weak showing compared to Ron but I think it's just a testament to how established Rand already is. The Grassroots may not be as vocal or charitable this time around but that may ultimately be OK as long as they vote for him in the end.

Ron's Black This Out Moneybomb (which was the biggest during the second campaign I think), raised 2.6 million in 3 days and occurred just a few months before the first primaries.

He needs the money. You can't be a serious contender if you can't raise money. That being said. Online fundraising only shows the support of the little people. The big money comes from other sources. I'm not sure it matters all too much how much he actually raises online...what matters is how many little people donate...if you are counting votes. But who's counting?

I don't think Rand would have considered a run if he didn't secure some serious big donors.

Precisely. Grassroots money is good, money from bigwigs, kingmakers, and those with name recognition is better.

If you did create a Rand Paul graphs site, that would be awesome.

On another note, does anyone have an actual list of all previous bombs from 08 and 12 that we could compare this to?

Why compare to the 2nd campaign? This is Rand's first...

Ron took home 4 million in November of 2007 and then another 6 million a month later. I know we're 7-8 months behind that point but we're basically going to match what Ted Cruz got a few weeks back. Rand's campaign will be driven by big donors... I think they should use the moneybomb model very sparingly this time around so the total amounts are bigger.

$960,000 getting closer.

I personally would compare these moneybombs to Ron's second run. The mood of the campaigns are more aligned then the 08 campaign I think. The 08 pushes were simply unmatched, and I don't think anyone else could reach their heights again.

He certainly is not Ron but he is our best hope for sure...

I don't see how it being Rand's first has anything to do with what year we compare it to.

The video process after you donate is not currently working if anyone who can fix it is watching here...
