(7,862 posts)I would suggest Harrison, but he has a lot of ads out as is, so it seems like he may be in a relatively good position money-wise right now.

and right now I'm doing postcards to voters for him...
He seems like he may be able to win.
Thank you for the suggestion...

(11,330 posts)did it for midterm elections, primaries this year, and now the general election. it is easy to do...
Once they approved me, I just need to text HELLO and pick which campaign i want to work on.
I order the postcards from Amazon....got a new delivery last night so ready to work this weekend

(60,010 posts)Mitch McConnel needs to lose, priority one. As leader of Senate all these years he's blocked almost all Dem. bills
and refused to pass Civic relief bills, he says the state's should go bankrupt if they don't have enough $$$.
He keeps Kentucky under his thumb, his opponent needs as much help as possible.
Harrison raised a million $$$ in the last couple days, btw.

Thank you though, I looked up the Harrison fundraising stories...looks like he may be on a roll right now.

Espy can win the Senate seat if Black turnout increases in MS
McGrath is not going to win sadly
Ky. Democrats failed
Booker may get a last minute Fool's Gold scare, but he'll hold on

(11,330 posts)is sufficient to win in his state, but the polls aren't looking really good right now.
I've also made contributions to Shaheen but I think that race may be going well enough that a more borderline race would benefit more from my bucks.

(60,010 posts)A business he had in Texas was busted for fraud, his partner went to prison, but Tuberville managed to avoid serious charges.
There are also stories of his brief time as Aburn, Ala. Coach involving questionable contract issues, which voters will pay attention to since football is second only to God down here.I
I wouldn't count Doug Jones out yet. His surprising win 2 years ago was because your average voter remains pretty quiet till
Election Day in most of the state.

In your situation, I would definitely include Greenfield, Bullock, Bollier, Osoff and Harrison.
In addition to those, I have made hefty contributions to Gideon, Hickenlooper, Hegar, Jones and McGrath so you don't have to
Gideon and Hickenlooper should make it, Jones and McGrath are long shots, but I want them to have a fighting chance to ride the blue wave, in case it gathers enough strength to pull them along.
I made my first big contributions at the beginning of the year to Mark Kelly because I know him, and to Sarah Gideon and Amy McGrath because I CAN'T STAND Collins and McTurtle.

There used to be a group maybe swing left which would do an analysis of campaign funding to figure out which campaign would most benefit from contributions, but I haven't been able to locate that information this year.
