Donor Match on Better Democrats: Two Final Days

Ok, so the big dollar donor match I announced earlier happened with the first $5k, and that money is being moved to candidates as we speak.  Congrats, you guys unlocked a bunch of money to great Democratic women.  But there's still some money left on the table, since we haven't yet hit $15k that the donors promised to match.  This money will be useful for the campaigns; there are last minute cable and TV buys happening and field programs, so if you can put something in, your donations will be doubled.

You can give here.  Nearly every woman on the list is in a tough fight, a close fight, and your bit of cash could possibly tip the scales.

Will the money really reach the candidates in time? (0.00 / 0)
Ok, I have to admit, I dunno much about the US banking system, but here in Germany it would take about two days to transfer the money  - not because we're still lving on the trees here, but because banks make a nice little profit from withholding the money for one day and using it for very short term investments (sadly, that's still legal). I don't think this is totally different in the US, or do you really have "instant" transfers? And then, the timespan for candidates to buy media time etc is already awfully short. So, does donating now still makes sense?
