Rep. registration outnumbers Dem. registration by 50,000 voters.

Francine Busby ran a strong campaign last time and received 37% of the votes. Now that Duke is retiring (before he does jail time, imo), maybe she will be able to beat the Republican candidate.

What needs to happen? Obviously, we need a huge Dem. turnout at the polls and need to convince many Rep. to vote for Francine.

I volunteered for the Dem. challenger to Darrell Issa during the last election in the 49th CD. Another heavily Rep. registration.....and we got 31% of the vote (I think).

Tough job ahead, but if the Dem. National Party backs Francine, perhaps she will win.
