We are reaching the final deadline to support candidates.Last minute money does help them on the final push!
As we reach election day, there are new developments in the news and polling that greatly improve candidates chances.
These newly important candidates need funding since their races were not on large national donor lists. Please donate to the Late Breaking Opportunities Fund to help these candidates.
Kolbe Cole PA-HD-10: Pennsylvania needs to flip 9 seats in the house to have the majority. On October 20, Kolbe was moved to Tilt D by CNalysis due to a scandal with the Republican candidate and a strong independent candidate. This improved the PA House to Tilt R.
Christopher Quist AK-HD-1: Alaska is the news here. The Democrats used to hold the house with a coalition of Republicans and Independents. On October 6th the Republicans decided to call off the coalition leaving the Democrats needing 4 seats to regain the house. Christopher Quist is a DLCC recommended candidate running for a seat in Fairbanks that was decided by 1 contested vote in 2018! This is the true definition of a Toss Up election. Funding goes far in Alaska with a small population. As an added bonus, support here will also get out the vote for Dr. Al Gross, a strong contender for the US Senate.
Linda Cooper-Suggs NC-HD-24: Linda only entered the race in at the end of July when she was also asked to take over this house seat so she needed to both assume the new duties of running the house seat and ramp up an election starting in Q3 missing out on Q2 fundraising. The previous incumbent barely won the seat in 2018 with only 50.8% of the vote. This is an important seat to hold and Linda has been endorsed by Joe Biden.
Lauren Lareau PA-HD-142: Lauren has been running a strong race in a district that has a reasonable chance to flip. The district has an LDI of 0 and only went +5 for Trump in 2016. On October 24, the race was moved to Lean R by CNalysis due to the strong running of Lauren. We need to find every opportunity to Flip PA ahead of redistricting and this race can benefit from a final push.
Josh Gary WV-SD-2: The West Virginia Senate is in play. CNalysis has a 30% chance of a tie or a flip which would block partisan gerrymandering. The news here is that Josh’s opponent had a new scandal which moved this contest to a Toss-Up on October 18th. Josh is a strong candidate endorsed by the DLCC.
These candidates could be the tipping point for their state house and senate and are in key swing states (Pennsylvania) or in a state with a strong candidate for Senator (North Carolina, Alaska) so contributions will help get out the vote where it matters.
Please support these candidates whose chances have been greatly improved or made more important by late breaking news. These races are underfunded relative to higher profile ones and your money will have an outsized impact. Thanks for your support.
