According to this article, DFA raised about 200,000 for the WA recount.
Money received thus far by source:
$250,000 Democratic National Committee
$250,000 John Kerry's presidential campaign
$250,000 MoveOn.org.
$75,000 from the abortion rights group EMILY's List (Foolish way to describe Emily's list)
$50,000 from the state's Indian tribes
$200,000 came from subscribers to the e-mail list maintained by former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean's group.

SNIP.."Assisted by personal appeals from Gregoire, the party got $250,000 each from the Democratic National Committee, John Kerry’s presidential campaign and the progressive political action committee MoveOn.org.

It got $75,000 from the abortion rights group EMILY’s List and $50,000 from the state’s Indian tribes, Democratic Party officials said.

Brost said more than $200,000 came from contributions to the party’s Web site. And another $200,000 came from subscribers to the e-mail list maintained by former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean’s group, said Pam Eakes of Seattle, who was national finance co-chair of Dean’s presidential campaign...."

I know I emailed them when we donated, and I don't know how others let them know. We add 12 cents also to indicate from DFA. If these figures are correct, these are awesome.

1. Yes, I read about this today!
It's some fine news. Speaking of MoveOn, I wonder if there isn't some crossover between MoveOn and DFA...

And if there isn't, shouldn't there be?
