1. Wow...

where's DU on that list?

Does anybody have the numbers for DU? I'm curious.

5. Odd

Here are the traffic ranks for those sites according to Alexa:

Huffington Post: 1,426
Daily Kos: 2,048
Crooks and Liars: 3,838
Raw Story: 3,966
DNC (democrats.org): 28,994

DU's traffic rank on Alexa is 5,561. That's higher than Think Progress, TPM, AmericaBlog, etc. etc. Which would make us the fifth largest liberal website on the Internet, unless anyone can think of another one...

2. I'm genuinely shocked that DU isn't on that list!

The DNC???????

In July, Democrats were asked to contact 100 voters before Election Day. Take a minute to evaluate your progress. If you haven't contacted any voters yet, it's time to get started. If you really want change, your vote isn't going to be enough. You've got to get out there and make sure people in your neighborhood are voting for Democrats.

Your first order of business should be making sure potential voters are registered. You can check the voter registration deadlines for your state on your state page.

7. How are the Alexa rankings figured?

I've heard that counts only those that have Alexa 'spyware' on their computer. Is this true, or can it actually count everyone that logs onto a site?
