RADPAC 2004 Annual Report


RADPAC Web Site Creation a Valuable Resource

RADPAC created its new Web site, www.radpac.org in 2004. One of the most important features of this new Web site is the option for ACRa members to make RADPAC contributions online. The Web site serves not only as a valuable resource for ACRa members interested in learning more about RADPAC, but it is also a vehicle to recognize ACRa members who have assisted RADPAC by attending fundraising events with their members of Congress.

RADPAC's Successful Campaign of 2004

On May 3, 2004, RADPAC began its Campaign of 2004 with a goal of raising $240,000 between May 3 and September 27. The purpose of the campaign was to raise money before the general election held on November 2. RADPAC exceeded its goal by raising $287,195, which allowed it to be an active player in many tightly contested races down the final stretch leading up to the election.

RADPAC Continues to Grow

RADPAC has nearly doubled both the amount of contributions it received from ACRa members and contributions it made to candidates, political parties, and leadership PACs in the 2003-2004 election cycle, as compared to the 2001-2002 election cycle. Additionally, RADPAC closed in on the $1 million mark for the 2003-2004 election cycle, which is an impressive feat for a PAC that was started just 5 years ago.

As of December 16, 2004, RADPAC's key statistics were:

Number of RADPAC Donors Contributions Received by RADPAC
RADPAC Contributions Made to Candidates, Parties, and PACs

In the 2003-2004 election cycle, RADPAC contributed to 132 House candidates; 125 of these candidates were victorious for a success rate of 94%. RADPAC contributed to 22 Senate candidates; 19 of these candidates were victorious for a success rate of 86%.

As a result of the high level of activity in contributions received and contributions made in the 2003-2004 election cycle, RADPAC staff and ACRa members attended more than 240 events with members of Congress.
