Gary Page needs help now to get on the ballot
Gary needs help to reach the filing fee. It is a steep $3100. Rachel and I made a personal donation. Please do the same.

2. Thanks David! Gary is out now with a crew in the southern
sector of his district trying to get the needed signatures. Peter Johnson is walking with him this morning. I'll be working in the northern sector this am and early pm.

Thanks to all of you and have a wonderful evening ringing out the old and in with the new.

2006 is going to be a great year in the State of Texas. I have every confidence with leaders such as yourself and all the rest of our Dems we can Take Texas Back!

5. Thanks!
Now that I know who he is and what he is running for, I will send some cash his way. If he's good enough for David, he's good enough for me! I just needed to know where to go to follow through! :patriot:

What a great country !!!!!

I AM IN! I have hit the mark where I can cover the rest.
(on edit) Got a little excited and forgot the tally ... $1640 ! :yourock:

Filling out the paperwork tonight to take down to Austin.
TEXAS CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT 24 WILL HAVE A DEMOCRATIC CHALLENGER!

Yea baby! :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

I would like to thank the member of the Acade ... (wait ... wrong speech).

Thanks to all the contributers, and the posters, and the folks who kept kicking it to the top of every darn forum, and my wife who (evidently) knows how to get money better than me !!!

Party time's over ... time to get to work ...




(hushed tones) "yeeee-haawww!!"

9. That's fabulous news Gary!!!
I think you may still have a little more coming. The message is going out on various lists. I'm sure if you have excess over the filing fee amount, contributors want you to use it in your campaign.

David did a great job getting the word out to his lists.

:woohoo: :applause:


We wish you all the best. You've got the much harder job to do in the next year. Thanks for stepping up.

Sonia

11. BTW

The tally was the amount I got strictly from here! After the last post went to the "Greatest", donations started rolling in. I'm still sending the replies. No complaints. No sirree.

The future starts .... NOW!

12. David Van Os sent out the following congrats also
I just got off the phone with Gary Page. You did it! He's gone over the top with the money needed for his filing fee. Over $1700 came in on PayPal within 4 hours time. He read me the names of donors. Approximately 80% of it came from members of our Steering Committee. Thank you so much for doing this. Gary is a fighting Democrat who will tear into Kenny Marchant and the Republican leadership. I can't thank you enough for doing this. We need Democrats like him on the ballot everywhere. I am proud of you.

My best personal regards,
David Van Os
