Al Franken-MN/Jeff Merkley-OR 2020.
Both of these men are strong progressives elected to the US Senate in 2008 by unseating Republican incumbents by a narrow margin, re-elected in 2014 by high single digit/ low double digit margin. Al Franken-MN is doing an excellent job as US Senator filibustering Trump cabinet appointees. He was also behind Air America. Jeff Merkley-OR was the first Democratic US Senator to endorse Bernie Sanders.
