The Campaign: Finances and Ways to Help

We have formed the Committee to Elect Jean Vortkamp and are now accepting donations. I would rather this campaign be publicly funded with a set amount of funding per candidate, but this is sadly not how our election system is set up.  The longer I am in the race the less I want any money. I am required to set up financial reporting. I would prefer if you just helped out by spreading the word. Money donated often means favors returned later. Please remember that when you evaluate anyone running for any office. Being dedicated to full transparency, you may see who has contributed to this campaign and how our funds are used on this spreadsheet

MONETARY CONTRIBUTIONS

If you donate in total over $100, we need to know your occupation, place of employment, and employment address. 

We accept Paypal but we need to collect the information we noted above.
