The National ME/FM Action Network are now 20,000 votes behind and the size has increased every day. As I'm doing the figures in my head, assume that the gap doesn't change by the end of the day. Then they would need to get 1,000 more than Light and Love Home- Vancouver gets each day; so if Light and Love Home- Vancouver averaged 400, that would be 1,400. Light and Love Home- Vancouver have got up to 700 in a day before so would likely increase if challenged. So the National ME/FM Action Network would need to average around 1,500. They have only topped 200 once I think when they got 220.I would also say let's go for the IACFS/ME first. I guess they have the bigger outreach and also helping them means helping the National ME/FM Action Network to some degree, because of the IACFS/ME conference in Ottawa. So hopefully some of the ME/FM Action Network supporters will also support the IACFS/ME, as soon as they realize that's their better chance.
You probably need to start recruiting fast then to avoid making future votes wasted votes.Since I am from Canada, I have a difficult time voting for another organisation than National ME/FM Action Network.

It appears that Nightingale has a lead of about 30 votes at the time of this posting.

It is a reasonable idea.Maybe in the last couple of days of the contest, in case there was no major move by a contender, we can ask the people at "Voting 4 Grants" to vote for the IACFS/ME. If it's "only" 1000 or so votes missing to reach the 5000 mark, they could do that in 2 or 3 days, they had around 600 members, when i last looked.
when I just voted, there was about 565 votes, so looks like almost 100 votes/day. We are going to need more than this daily for a while to get to 5k! Any ideas?

624 votes, about 24 hours apart. Doesn't look good for getting 5,000 votes!
