When donating to Senate candidates, please don't forget Doug Jones

we don't need to just flip GOP seats, we need to hold ours.

Jones is behind in Alabama, but only slightly so.

He certainly has a better chance to win than McGrath in KY.


Doug has been a great Democratic senator in the deep red south


If you're inclined to donate, help him out.

A fighting chance, like Harrison in SC

It’s just the reality of things...we’ve got to win the senate as well

3. He was behind when he won. His opponent was so confident that he made a show of voting.

That race will come down to who does a better job of turning out his supporters and convincing on the fence people. I contributed to Jones this morning and am glad that I did.

I believe that election is going to come down to a ground game, he needs money to execute a strong ground game program. People, don’t give up on him, he has a good chance of retaining his seat if turnout is good.

Cunningham - NC
Greenfield - IA
Harrison - SC
Hickenlooper - CO
Kelly - AZ
Gideon - ME

Even McGrath in KY is essentially done for. Not aggressive enough in her campaign. Too lackluster. McConnell won’t have to campaign in KY

Peters in MI needs to hold

We need to flip 5, 4 minimally if Biden wins
