Gonna kick in for the campaign, and, as always, I appreciate the clear-eyed update from the Hill...but I gotta ask you something, Jeff. Why would you, or ANY rational person, want to subject yourself to the pain that is campaign fund-raising and dealing with the likes of your opponent and their baseless attacks. I can't imagine the stress and the toll it must take on you and your family. God knows we need public servants who are willing to put country, state, or locality ahead of their own professional goals, but, especially of late, running for office is more akin to standing in a median holding a cardboard sign than it is a pure quest to do good for your constituency. That said, I deeply appreciate your willingness to suffer the slings and arrows, and I'm behind you all the way!

Of course, I will chip in for you. You are the best candidate, and I was pleased to hear Kamala Harris call out for you and Josh Stein at one of her recent rallys in the State. It is a shame that running for office has become a financial free for all....I don't think the person with the most money should win. The State should hold events for state-wide campaigns in which every candidate can present himself and his ideas. The events should be state-wide covered by the news media in the State. The events hould include debates. There should be a cap on campaign spending allowing each candidate an equal amount, and penalties for infractions. If only the ridiculously huge amounts of money spent on campaign could be used for programs to actually better the lives of our fellow citizens, we would all benefit. Maybe someday? Thanks again for all your good work and personal sacrifices (family) to fairly and competently serve your constituents.

I'm seeing your ads on YouTube so that's good. Hopefully others are as well. Continue pushing forward.... My county is red but my heart is blue! Now I need to go write some postcards!

Hi Jeff, it's me again from upstate NY. Did send $$. Read today that Vance says they "create stories so that the American media actually pays attention". No big news, but how to fight this. I'm so thoroughly disgusted.. I don't know how you do it. NC needs you as Attorney General!

He did not say 'create stories', he said amplify stories from his constituents.

You know, the people he is supposed to be representing, not haitens, not israelis, not ukrainians, not taiwanese, but Americans.

Sending along our bit. Go get 'em, Jeff!

Massachusetts kicking in again today because we really want you around in government as long as you wish to serve. You are the best.

Thanks Jeff for being honest. More people in politics should follow your example of telling it like it really is instead of being politically correct and just "dance around the truth" with other agendas in their minds to get what they want instead of what North Carolina and America really need.

Ordered a yard sign plus added $10 extra for funding you ads time.

This is the first time I've ever made ANY political contribution. This is the first time I've felt a candidate was really worthy of my sacrifice that would actually make a difference.

Donated and will share to ask others for their help!

I can count on one hand the number of times I've put any money toward politics, which I despise, but I just made a donation to you, Mr. Jackson. I don't live in your district or even your state; that's how much I'm impressed by your intelligence, candor, and hard work. I hope it helps.

As always Thank You Jeff! I am campaigning for you as often as I get the opportunity! I will do everything in my power to help you!

I’ve looked around on the net and cannot find out where you will be and when. I always hear about your appearances after the fact. I’d like to help boost the audience count if you’re near me.

In the wake of the golf course gunman, maybe a bill to reform gun control is due. We could name it "Save Donald Trump's Life".

I wonder how many GOP folks would vote against it.

I would.
