pleased
to announce a check received
for $20,000 to help finance
a major quiz
door hanger distribution
project in 2016. <br>
<br>
The check was hand delivered
recently by Michael
Chastain, of <u></u><u></u>Austin<u></u>,
<u></u>Texas<u></u><u></u>.
Mr. Chastain also recently
contributed $4,000 for <u></u><u></u>Oklahoma<u></u><u></u>
ballot access.<br>
<br>
I plan to do something
similar to what we did in
2010:<br>
<a href="http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/lp-monday-message-help-reach-a-million" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/lp-monday-message-help-reach-a-million" target="_blank">http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/lp-monday-message-help-reach-a-million</a><br>
<a href="http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/quiz-across-america-door-hangers-5-per-100" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/quiz-across-america-door-hangers-5-per-100" target="_blank">http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/quiz-across-america-door-hangers-5-per-100</a><br>
<br>
but this time, I want to do
over a million door hangers.
I can see having the
quiz on one side, and our
presidential nominee on the
other.<br>
<br>
In 2010, we also received a
$20,000 check from a
different donor to help
support door hangers. With
the extra financing, we're
able to sell them at five
cents each and waive
shipping charges, rather
than selling at 10 cents
each
plus $5 shipping as we do
now.<br>
<br>
For those of you new to the
LNC, I've written
separately, and will write
more
in the future, about how the
door hangers do much more
than simply provide the
printed advertising
benefits. They encourage
local activity, etc. I'll
write
more about it later. <br>
<br>
To me, this was an early
Christmas present to the LP,
but I certainly
understand others might see
it differently:<br>
