Elect Women NJ – Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death inspires millions in donations
Elect Women NJ is thrilled to announce they have been invited by the prestigious national Electing Women Alliance to co-host a Kamala Harris fundraising event joining PACs across the country committed to electing more women. The date will be announced in early October and will likely be right after the first VP debates between October 5th and 15th.
“The death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is devastating news. Her trailblazing championing of gender equality and democratic ideals leaves a legacy for generations to come. The stakes in the 2020 election just became much higher as the Senate Majority leader announced he intends to move forward with a Senate nomination for a new Chief Justice in the next 45 days. This is in stark contrast to Senator McConnell’s unprecedented position in February 2016 that nominations should not occur in an election year. Doing all we can to support Democrats in the 2020 election just became even more important, ” said Chairwoman Kerri Kennedy.
According to the New York Times “Democratic donors gave more money online in the 9 p.m. hour after Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died — $6.2 million — than in any other single hour since ActBlue, the donation-processing site, was launched 16 years ago. Then donors broke the site’s record again in the 10 p.m. hour when donors gave another $6.3 million — more than $100,000 per minute.”
“Equity matters. Representation matters. Character matters. What we learned by watching the tallies soar last night is that donations matter and votes matter. Elect Women NJ is proud to ask for your support to elect women in honor of Justice Ginsburg,” stated Tricia Maguire, Executive Director.
