How many DUers use the $3 Presidential Election check mark on IRS taxes?

The Presidential Election Campaign fund is often forgotten on tax returns. It doesn't increase your tax OR reduce your refund.

Marta and I do it every year.

OS

The presidential election campaign fund checkoff appears on US income tax return forms as the question Do you want $3 of your federal tax to go to the Presidential Election Campaign Fund? ... Both the Republican and Democratic nominees in the general election receive a fixed amount of checkoff dollars.

I thought he was dead?

Anyway, I never give them the 3 bucks, both campaigns are bought and paid for by people far richer than I.

That's an annual, "Oh Hell no!" for me.

Maybe the DU-morons should be reminded that a large percentage of their $3 will go to R candidates.

I don't give the gov't any more money than it takes to keep them out of my life, which is as little as possible. And as a business owner, I log all sorts of expenses and take all kinds of deductions.

So if I understand this correctly, Mr. Mini-Taco helped fund John McCain for president and not Obummer, since McCain and not Obama took the public funding?  :whistling:

In order to file an income tax form you must have income. This means most of the DUmmies don't have to deal with tax forms so they don't have to make this $3.00 decision.
