A couple of the other bloggers who supported Ryan Meili during the Saskatchewan NDP leadership race have issued challenges to their readers to donate to the Ryan Meili campaign to help pay off the last remaining debt that helped Dr. Meili finish a strong second place to eventual winner, Dwain Lingenfelter.
Accidental Deliberations suggested variations on 45 ($4.50, $45, $450) to represent Ryan's final share of the vote while Louis Riel Trail chose 1885 as its target number ($1.85, $18.85, $188.50, etc.)
As the librarian of the group, I think I'll choose 324.6 which is, of course, the Dewey Classification number for political campaigns.
Now, I know most of the readers of this blog are from out-of-province and could give two whiffs about Saskatchewan politics. But I think it's important to show that librarians and politics go beyond former school librarian, Laura Bush.
So my challenge to you is this – if you find this blog entertaining or informative or useful, whether I'm writing about libraries OR politics – why not take a moment to send $3.24 (or $32.46 or $324.60 – if you're a rich librarian – I know, contradiction in terms! 
) to Ryan's Donation Page?
