I can never find where the DU ActBlue contribution page is. Why is it so hard to find? I end up going to ActBlue itself.

Yes, I know someone will chirp in with "Just go to XXXooo and there it is!" but I've been looking all over and I don't know why this has to be secret hidden information. I'm frustrated - and wasting time.

I gotta tell you, in every election season, it should be prominent and right up front and easy to find.

The latest: You raised $1,383.00 on April 16, 2024 OFFICIAL DU for Biden-Harris 2024

Hmm, I thought these postings all had a link to a master list of all the DU for whoever/whatever listings/links

There is some such somewhere, I know, I've seen it! .

Yes, you are right, this is all very obscure at best. And of course it changes a lot, I would imagine.

I did a search on the below and found a bunch of them, if you've got a lot of patience and luck...

this one in the same thread from early March has about 5 others (Sarpy County Dems, Michelle Vallejo TX-15, Gallego (running against Sinema), Tony Vargas US Congress (NE-2), Seth Magaziner RI, Joe Biden / Kamala Harris. Maybe that's all there is?

(Ukraine, Sarpy County Dems, Michelle Vallejo TX-15, Gallego (running against Sinema), Tony Vargas US Congress (NE-2), Seth Magaziner RI, Joe Biden / Kamala Harris).

The link also says why some of these campaigns are important (e.g. close races)

Now if I can only remember in the future where to find this, or where to put a note about it, a note that I will be able to find, sigh. Especially since I have signature lines turned off, I would have never seen it (because quite a number of thoughtless people put annoying distracting animations in their signature line -- Note to myself: example: JedrIlRv)

for it -- it was the first place I looked when I first saw this thread -- a Word file that among other things has a section on DU in general. Then it will be easy to find by searching it for "ActBlue" for example.
