Let’s Take Congress in 2020!
This site raised $255,143.46 for national Democratic candidates across the 2018 and 2020 elections. It now functions as an archive for demonstration purposes. If you want to discuss the site for any reason, please send an email hello@takecongress.org.
Donate strategically to every Democrat in a competitive race.
We use FiveThirtyEight’s predictions to split up your donation strategically. Candidates in closer races get bigger shares, but long-shot campaigns don’t get left out in the cold.
Funds go directly to candidates via ActBlue, the payment platform used by Democrats and progressive groups.
(Fine Print)
- Don’t worry: ActBlue won’t send your email address to candidates unless you specifically consent after donating. (Just say no.)
- Donation limits are $2800 per candidate. We keep the numbers within limits for individual donations, but if you donate multiple times you’re responsible for making sure you don’t go over.
- ActBlue handles all payment processing and collection of FEC reporting information. We just compute amounts and fill them into a form hosted by ActBlue.
