(18,252 posts)do you mean organizations like Brand New Congress who primary incumbent Democrats in safe districts rather than take on weakened incumbent Republicans who we are working to unseat?
We could use some help here on LI where we have two excellent, dynamic, young Democratic candidates trying to flip Peter King and Lee Zeldin's seats. It would be great if a young Latina congressional GE candidate joined us one of these weeks in front of Rep. King's office for one of our regular anti-family separation rallies.
But alas, our candidates have not pledged fealty and relinquished control to the BNC collective, and they are well past battling other Democrats for a place on the ballot other Democrats (the congressional GE season has been upon us in NY for a full four weeks), so our Democrats are not eligible for support from BNC candidates.
