VAR Shows Commitment to Technology Through Political Donations
October 24, 2007 |
The fact that the Virginia Association of REALTORS made donations to the campaigns of two Virginia politicians is not news. The organization does that routinely. What is newsworthy is the type of donation that was made. VAR is providing an in-kind donation of text-messaging services to State Senator Jeannemarie Devolites-Davis and Delegate David Poisson. Both plan on using the system as a means of outreach and increasing their grassroots efforts.
It is good to see that VAR is at least thinking outside of the box with their support. A donation such as this one is far more interesting and potentially rewarding to Virginia voters than a simple monetary donation. Kudos to VAR.
Hat Tip to Ben Martin.

It’s a very cool thing to be a part of. I’m glad that we can provide something of value to both candidates and voters alike. And maybe this saves a tree by keeping a postcard out of those voters’ mailboxes.
