Updates and Budget Motions
Hey Team, Happy May! I just wanted to send out an email with a few updated items as well as a few things we need to update in the budget. BALLOT ACCESS LAWSUIT FUNDRAISING: We have collected $5,767.86 so far. We have another $3,220 pledged, but that hasn't been donated yet. That total is $8,987.86. Our goal is $15,000 so we still have quite a ways to go. As of now, we owe Bryan Sells $8,945.66. Please donate if you haven't. LPHQ(National Staff) have offered us quite a bit of assistance in our efforts. You probably saw the email go out from national about our fundraising. New Executive Director, Dan Fishman, has also been phone banking on our behalf. Finally, they are sending us a check for $1,000 from their discretionary funds. We are still awaiting help from the LNC. FILING FEES REFUNDED: We received our filing fee refund of 75% of the filing fees paid by candidates in the last election cycle. This was $22,700.98 and it was deposited directly into our Leveling Fund. GENERAL HOUSEKEEPING: Goal Updates - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GFpvlxQoAUPHpFTcPe0cIetxwcymgkV3vJEw... Updated Budget - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qsCbPe_bgIAPBRc-zwc7F8Pps-AA3Rl4_j00... MOTION 1: Last month, I took all of our CiviCRM contacts and imported them into MailChimp. Our contact list grew by quite a bit, and the open rate increased as well. We ended up raising over $1,000 with the new list. With that being said, the monthly cost of Mailchimp has gone up from $75 to $90. I make a motion to amend the budget to increase the monthly expenditure for Mailchimp to be $90. Still need a second, and then we'll set up an email ballot for each motion. MOTION 2: Storage expenses went up from $57 a month to $59 a month. I make a motion to amend the budget to increase the monthly expenditure for storage to $59. MOTION 3: Three of our candidates in 2018 paid the entirety of their filing fees, John Turpish, Martin Cowen, and me. We made the disbursements because it was promised back to those candidates then, but it wasn't properly included in the budget. We need to amend the budget to account for disbursing $9,260.15 in total back to these candidates. I make a motion to amend the budget to add a leveling fund expenditure of $9,260.15 to reflect disbursement of filing fees back to those candidates who paid the full amount. It's worth noting that John Turpish has already donated the entirety of his disbursement back to the LP Georgia, so we welcome him as our latest Lifetime member. That donation was split three ways evenly among the Operations fund, Leveling fund, and the Ballot Access Lawsuit fund. I also made a donation of $1,000 towards the ballot access lawsuit and have become a LPGa Lifetime member. -- In Liberty, Ryan Graham Chair, Libertarian Party of Georgia
Still waiting for Seconds on the three motions mentioned below so we can get an email vote going. --- In Liberty, Ryan Graham Chair, Libertarian Party of Georgia On 2019-05-02 22:23, Ryan Graham wrote:

It's worth noting that John Turpish has already donated the entirety of his disbursement back to the LP Georgia, so we welcome him as our latest Lifetime member. That donation was split three ways evenly among the Operations fund, Leveling fund, and the Ballot Access Lawsuit fund. I also made a donation of $1,000 towards the ballot access lawsuit and have become a LPGa Lifetime member. -- In Liberty, Ryan Graham Chair, Libertarian Party of Georgia

Hey Team,
Happy May! I just wanted to send out an email with a few updated items as well as a few things we need to update in the budget.
*Ballot Access Lawsuit Fundraising:*
We have collected $5,767.86 so far. We have another $3,220 pledged, but that hasn't been donated yet. That total is $8,987.86. Our goal is $15,000 so we still have quite a ways to go. As of now, we owe Bryan Sells $8,945.66. Please donate if you haven't.
LPHQ(National Staff) have offered us quite a bit of assistance in our efforts. You probably saw the email go out from national about our fundraising. New Executive Director, Dan Fishman, has also been phone banking on our behalf. Finally, they are sending us a check for $1,000 from their discretionary funds.
We are still awaiting help from the LNC.
*Filing Fees Refunded:*
We received our filing fee refund of 75% of the filing fees paid by candidates in the last election cycle. This was $22,700.98 and it was deposited directly into our Leveling Fund.
*General Housekeeping:*
Goal Updates - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GFpvlxQoAUPHpFTcPe0cIetxwcymgkV3vJEw...
Updated Budget - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qsCbPe_bgIAPBRc-zwc7F8Pps-AA3Rl4_j00...
*Motion 1:*
Last month, I took all of our CiviCRM contacts and imported them into MailChimp. Our contact list grew by quite a bit, and the open rate increased as well. We ended up raising over $1,000 with the new list. With that being said, the monthly cost of Mailchimp has gone up from $75 to $90.
I make a motion to amend the budget to increase the monthly expenditure for Mailchimp to be $90. Still need a second, and then we'll set up an email ballot for each motion.
*Motion 2:*
Storage expenses went up from $57 a month to $59 a month.
I make a motion to amend the budget to increase the monthly expenditure for storage to $59.
*Motion 3:*
Three of our candidates in 2018 paid the entirety of their filing fees, John Turpish, Martin Cowen, and me. We made the disbursements because it was promised back to those candidates then, but it wasn't properly included in the budget. We need to amend the budget to account for disbursing $9,260.15 in total back to these candidates.
I make a motion to amend the budget to add a leveling fund expenditure of $9,260.15 to reflect disbursement of filing fees back to those candidates who paid the full amount.
