I am sorry we did not hit the $20k mark for you, it is a pretty rough time I guess for people to give, on top of that we can't really reach supporters like we did for RP. I am not too knowledgeable when it comes to financing campaigns and if you need a certain amount to even qualify to run, but I hope you will continue to hit the pavement where you live. It might not be a bad idea to go house to house where you live and introduce yourself as the candidate who is looking to be honest and being so is one who is looking for honest money to run his campaign. I do believe people are more willing to listen and want their voices to be heard, now more than ever. Are you able to have one of those fund raiser dinners, or raffles or anything? Maybe you could use some of the $10k to buy something for a raffle, or to finance a dinner party for yourself. I would definitely hit some car dealerships in your area, and explain to them what is going on, and that you need some help to run. Hit as many businesses as you can and let them know who you are and what you stand for, and that you are not owned by the establishment and you really need people to contribute to your campaign. You probably know all this, but I thought I would throw it out there just in case. Best of luck to you, go get em!!!!!!!!!!!!

10k was the one day goal:)
Tog,
No need to apologize. The money bomb was/is a wild success. 10k was our "one day" goal and we only missed it by $500.00. But the exposure we received more than makes up for it. There were some big players in the liberty movement that were not aware of my candidacy until Thursday...but now they are aware and they immediately sent out emails to their supporters who will now have an opportunity to help once they are able to read through the website and so forth. By our calculations, we reached out to nearly half a million people on Friday, 150k of which was in Oklahoma! Oh and most of the donations that came in were all from the "grass-roots." The average donation was around $40 from about 240 different donors. The reason that is important is it shows broad based support and not from just a few wealthy people. But, that is the one area we need to improve on...we did not reach the wealthy donors as well as we need to...they need to know that the way to protect their hard earned nest eggs is by investing in liberty candidates.
In perspective now:
In one day, we almost raised more than my opponent, an incumbent Republican since 2003, raised in the entire first quarter of this year!
In one day, we raised more than we had previously raised to date.
In one day we reached nearly a half million people, 150k + right here in OK. Most of the people reached had never heard of me before and now they will have a chance to vet me and to donate if they chose to.
The average amount raised and the volume of discrete donors shows
broad based grass roots support for this campaign and its message.
The rjharris2010 main website earned its highest hit rate to date up 428%!
So you see there is reason to celebrate not apologize! And there is reason for me to say once again, because it is never enough, thank you Patriots of the Old Republic for joining me in this early battle in the cause of freedom.
Those of you that could not contribute on friday you can still help us fill the Liberty Bell. June 19th was not the day Washington and his soldiers won the Revolution...it was just the day that they began their march to victory. Along their way from Valley Forge, many joined the cause and helped those patriots to victory and you can be one of those joining this cause now. Put down the remote, make a sign/banner, tell a friend, repost a blog or a banner, bumper sticker your car, wear an rj harris 2010 tshirt, walk a precinct, make a contribution, STAND UP AND FIGHT BESIDE US TO WIN BACK YOUR FREEDOM AND TO SAVE OUR REPUBLIC!
FOR LIBERTY!

How about mini money bombs every last Saturday of each month up until Election Day, and a few big money bombs here and there, people are stimulated by money bombs, but a lot of people are saving their money for big name candidates, but it is the small name candidate that needs more help from us if we are to accomplish our goal of restoring the constitution.
It has gotta be
June 19th still somewhere.

June 19th
It probably is in Hawaii... it looks like they took the June 19th off the top of the page... Maybe they'll take our advice and let it ride out all week. I think people will continue to donate.

What if RJ just left the Liberty Bell up there for another week? Rand's mini bomb raised 25K but he has since raised close to 75K... That could happen to RJ.
Keep RJ

I want a libertarian
Not a constitutionalist. Im sorry, and Im obviously not the only one, but RJ isnt my canidate.
I want a libertarian-minarchist (at the very least).
But a Constitutionalist is SO far in the right direction from what we've got now that I'm all for one. And I'm putting my money where my opinions are.
Once we get near a Constitution-obeying government we can worry about whether to park there or pass some amendments and repeal or strike some more laws for further-increased freedom.
= = = =
"Obama’s Economists: ‘Stimulus’ Has Cost $278,000 per Job."
That means: For each job "created or saved" about five were destroyed.
And RJ wants to do just that
he has said on many occasions that we need to start following the constitution that we have before we can even begin to consider making a new one... futhermore... it is a pretty damn good constitution.
if you don't want a constitution at all then you are really in favor of supporting an anarcho-capitalist... not a libertarian like RJ
$100 from me.
Currently shows $7,075.76
The web site has a problem: I have expanded the fonts because my poor old eyes can't handle the high-def screen. The windows in the forms are fixed size and don't take this into account. This cuts off the bottoms of the entries, making it very hard to read what is entered.
After several tries I finally got it to take a contribution. (And no it didn't take the contribution several times. It DOES tell you that it failed in a readable way - but only asks you to fix your entry without telling you what field is broken (other than distinguishing the capcha code from a bum entry in the form).)
I bet he'd get more money if the donation page weren't such a battle to use.

BUMP!
Just gave $40.00
:(
We seriously need to do better than this! I've donated... have you? If we can raise over $50,000 for Schiff and Rand Paul... then we defintely should be able to raise that much for an announced candidate!
Come on Guys... we need RJ in Congress!
RJ on this one now >>>> listen live

Kokesh did a nice endorsement on Harris' home page
I think what Kokesh did is very effective in support of Harris. He simple reminds people how the existing fraud cole voted. I think all liberty candidates should inform the voters about how their representatives have voted and tap into that anger. Yes I did donate!
