The 33 #GrabYourBallot candidates are all Democrats who are running in especially tight midterm races. Your donation will be divvied up between all 33 of them.*
Other lists we found out there either limited their scope to just the House or included candidates who already have such a huge lead or deep lag that additional funding isn't likely to make much of a difference at this stage.
By contrast, the #GrabYourBallot list focuses exclusively on tossup races where donations can still have a lot of impact. It includes candidates in races for the U.S. House, U.S. Senate, and U.S. governorships. More details about the 33 candidates are here: https://bit.ly/2xVCJau
The list began as 27 candidates and we've expanded it to 33 from there. The candidates have been receiving weekly checks from the #GrabYourBallot fund since it kicked off in early October.
*Note: your donation will be split between 33 candidates as well as the Grab Your Wallet Alliance, the 501c4 that arose out of the movement known as #GrabYourWallet. The alliance is a benevolent, rapid response army of people organized to flex their economic power in ways that promote inclusion and respect. If you'd rather donate just to the candidates, simply click the link in the upper right that says "click here to allocate amounts differently" and zero out the alliance contribution.
