2014 Elections in key states

Looking good for Democrars... why?
THE SHUTDOWN!!!!

Let's do it!!! VOTE 2014

PPP polled voters in six key states, which will likely determine control of the Senate after the 2014 election. It found that the majority opposed the shutdown and wanted to punish the politicians responsible. As a results, Republicans are trailing in five of the six races—even though most respondents voted for Republican Mitt Romney in last year's presidential elect
I believe it is the key to winning in these states and other elections as well.

Georgia
has
Michell Nunn(D) leading

Louisiana
has
Mary Landrieu(D) leading

Iowa's
open seat has
Bruce Braley(D) leading

Michigan's
open seat has
Gary Peters(D) leading

Kentucky
Allison Lundergan Grimes(D)
is looking good too! Beating Lindsay Graham would be so SO exciting...

I suggest talking that point up during the holidays with family and friends
and then really pushing it afterward will be our win.

Nate is the man..

I saw a while back where he did predict Democrats will win

it all 2014... I want to see more focus on 2014 and then 2016. Hope we are

organized, and ready to do ground work to get all of them elected..

I just wanted to try and get some buzz and excitement going for 2014..

It is vital to our future, and our next challenge in 2016.

VOTE 2014!

Hello everyone I am new to this message board, my name is Jamie Pasley. I am a County Volunteer Coordinator (Coweta County) for the Michelle Nunn senate campaign. I am working hard to find some fellow local democrats (in this strongly republican area) willing to be a part of our team and volunteer to get the word out about Michelle Nunn. I know we all know how important these 2014 midterm elections are but not everyone does and we need your help. Michelle has a real chance in Georgia and each person willing to do even the smallest thing can increase that chance so I hope you will be willing to join us. If you would like to be a part of our team please let me know.
Thanks so much!

You might want to also post your request in the Georgia group, where more people might notice and where you are guaranteed to meet some locals:
