Coming up very soon, Oregon Senate candidate and current House Speaker will be live blogging with the bloggers and readers of EENR! This will be our second live blog at EENR, and we're happy to be able to interact with Democratic candidates this way. It gives us all an opportunity to get to know the candidates better and it's an opportunity for the candidates to hear the concerns of progressive activists from across the country. I hope you guys have some questions ready!

1. Thanks, Catchawave.

I've talked to Steve Novick quite a bit, and I'm very interested in what Merkley has to say. He has some ground to make up before the primary if the latest polls are an indication.

We've got to get Gordon Smith the hell out of the US Senate!

2. Thanks C!

3. Glad to see interest :)

H and O aren't the only candidates this year :patriot:

Even if this isn't your state or candidate, Live blogging is the next best thing to meeting and greeting one of our own.
