From checking old FEC Reports – used to be several monthly donors at the $150 level or above that do not appear to be giving anymore. The LNC appeared to be at some point in the past on “auto pilot” with $150K a month or more & now they struggle to get above $100K a month.
Their budget needs to be re-done again & they need to take a serious look at operations. I’ve suggested many times previously over the last year plus cutting all expense categories down by 20-25% including contractors & staff as a start. That would be in line with what they’ve done in the past. – based on spending as shown in FEC & monthly reports online.
Cutting expenses is still the wrong solution. The LP has demonstrated in the recent past what level of fundraising it is capable of. Unlike the federal government, the LNC doesn’t have a spending problem, it has a revenue problem. The solution is to get back to behaving the way it did when it had a higher level of revenue and stop doing and saying the things that are causing people to stop donating.
