The Unity Campaign
The Unity Campaign was a project of the Progressive Unity Voter Fund, a political committee registered with the Federal Election Commission. The Unity Campaign unites, mobilizes, and informs progressives to help beat Bush – and to counter the threat posed by Ralph Nader's divisive candidacy. This was uniquely vital in 2004, especially in swing states, in the incredibly close election, and with so very few undecided voters. Progressives can make the difference.
The Unity Campaign was a successor campaign to RalphDontRun.net, which no doubt stands among the most successful “failed” internet campaigns in American political history. It drew 300,000 website visitors in six weeks, and reached 60 million Americans in four days via pervasive media coverage around Nader's candidacy announcement. Sadly, against the advice of nearly all those closest to him, Mr. Nader is running and apparently in the race to stay. Other projects of the Fund include DontVoteRalph.net, PollWatch04, and the “Ralph, Tell the Truth” internet petition drive.
