1. Good. However, I hope they will match with a big investment in state party infrastructure.

We must work to end the "parachute in" model of campaigning. Strong state parties that are building deeper and ongoing connections with voters are an asset that campaigns too often ignore -- to their detriment.

I highly recommend investing what you are able to in the Hopium Audacious Expansion Fund

And check out Simon's interviews with state party chairs, starting with Alaska's chair Eric Croft



Building effective state party infrastructure that campaigns can plug into is perhaps our most urgent challenge in the battle to redeem our national soul.
