A grassroots fundraising campaign for the 2024 election is trending towards half a million dollars raised by Fediverse members.

The Mastodon For Harris campaign has raised close to $500,000 within two weeks of being live. It is probably the largest attempt for political organizing on the Fediverse, and may provide a playbook for other efforts going forward.

    So did Harris’ campaign open a mastadon account (this shouldn’t be all that difficult or costly) following this initiative?

    I am not the from the US, just curious. More official government accounts on Mastadon is good thing.

    I did recently notice that I could follow some people on Threads on one of my Mastadon account, that’s a good thing too.
