    We have ramped up our collection rate dramatically. I currently
    predict (but I caution that my prediction could be off due to many
    factors such as weather, competing petitions, validity issues, math
    or count errors, and many other issues), but again, I currently
    predict we will finish around January 15 plus or minus 10 days. So
    be sure to check back with me before making concrete plans. See

                  [Lnc-business] early Christmas present - $20, 000 for
                  quiz door hangers<br>
                </font> </div>
              <div><div><div class="h5"><br>
                <div>
                  <div> I'm
                    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 Austin, Texas. Mr. Chastain also
                    recently contributed $4,000 for Oklahoma 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" rel="nofollow" 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" rel="nofollow" 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>
