Incoming!

Just a few more hours until the multiple money bomb event... See my previous blog post for the details and graphs.

The lead time was way below most of the big money bomb events.. So I'm predicting $465,381... which would put the day at the 5th best day since the start of recorded data. That said... there is a pretty good chance (in my opinion) that we'll take the #4 spot from RudysReadingList (11/30/07). Please add your prediction in the comments below.

I've seen a few optimistic folks predicting over a million dollars for the day... I'd love to eat my words... but with the limited lead time and exposure of the two major efforts tomorrow, I think a figure of that size is pretty unlikely. Please do your best to prove me wrong! sign up for these events... tell your friends... If you know you're getting a tax refund this year (or the stupid "stimulus" check) please try to donate a little more.

Double Barrel

Friday, February 1st, it's two money bombs in one.

LibertyTax08.com:

I pledge $500 to be donated on February 1st 2008 to raise awareness of the 16th Amendment, 'ratified' February 3rd, 1913. The IRS requires us to testify against ourselves directly in opposition of the 5th Amendment. It is time to make a stand, join the rEVOLution, end the IRS, and fund Dr. Paul for the long term.

FiftyOneYears.com:

Please join us this February 1st for the Ron and Carol Paul 51st wedding anniversary mass donation day. Our goal is to bring together 100,000 people to donate $51 each, creating a one day donation total of $5,100,000.

It's very short notice, but I feel a top ten day coming on. Spread the word.

Yes We Can

It's not a Tea Party, and it's not Nov 5th, but it's the next best thing! We'll certainly raise well over a $1 million... already the 3rd best fundraising day of the campaign... we're back on top of the fundraising contest with Huckabee...

I'm sure I'm not alone in saying this has been a depressing month... bad fundraising numbers.. disheartening scandal... poor showing in some early primary states... but with the 2nd place in NV, and the great fundraising showing today I feel my hope and enthusiasm returning. I hope this is our second wind.

Due to overwhelming popular demand, here is a graph showing today vs. Nov 5th and Dec 16th (and some other big days):



Don't forget that being a precinct leader is even more valuable than money! Here is a new widget from the campaign:

Ron Paul 2008 - Hope For America!

Sign Up!

Can We Do It Again?

Today is the Free At Last money bomb!



here it is versus some of the other big days:



"Only" 10,000 people signed up this time, so I'm not expecting Nov 5th or Dec 16th type numbers, but it should still be pretty good.

Precinct Leader Graph

As many of you know, the campaign is getting people to sign up as precinct leaders. I'm now graphing that data:



sign up if you can!

Happy NH Day

Well, It's The Big Day! I'm hoping for a top 3 finish... I probably don't need to remind anyone to go vote :)

In other news... Today is the 100th day of data. Monday the 7th was the 12th best day of those 100 days! Ron Paul sent out this message at about 5:30pm and turned the day into a $142k day... $120k in about 6.5 hours, not bad.

I think we've got our next big moneybomb... It's not going to be a tea party, but it's going to be pretty big.

Some Fixes For 2008 And A New Graph

I think I have fixed most of the glaring problems.. let me know if you see something I missed!

I think the new donors/donors/donations numbers look much more accurate now too.

I finally put together a graph which includes all of 2007 and will continue to grow throughout the campaign.

Happy New Year!

$387,954 on the last day of the 2007.. 5th best day of the year.. only $1400ish away from 4th place!

$19,560,782 for the quarter by my count! It'll probably be more once the offline totals, store totals and refunds are all accounted for.. just 15 days until the absolutely official numbers.... but will anyone care after the good news in IA and NH?

This is the first new quarter and new year that I've hit here at RonPaulGraphs.. so there are a few problems.. I fixed the big ones.. but there are several others, especially on the text stats page.. I'm going to fix those up tomorrow.

If you see anything wrong, please comment on this post and I'll try to address everything tomorrow.

Today there were some server problems.. we overwhelmed the new setup a few times. I've upgraded my server to the best machine offered by godaddy... so I'm moving again.. I hope it will be completely seamless... But over the next week there might be a few hiccups as everything transfers. If there's a problem after this, I'm going to get some professional help!

You thought 2007 was cool... hold on!

Happy New Year, Revolution!
