Pros
“ActBlue is pretty easy to use, even if what you're doing with it is big and audacious and has a lot of bureaucratic red tape around it.”

Cons
“They just let orgs like Elect Southern Democrats keep asking for more money with NO specificity, and NO accountability.”

“I have begun to suspect and question Act Blue's "overhead"-- how much money goes to the issue or candidate I support, and how much goes to payroll of Act Blue tecchies and employees, who very likely have a larger income than I.”
