I was really excited to read SquireForYou’s article with a link to her ActBlue group for a number of Virginia candidates. I’d been looking for exactly this for a while, feeling like there were donation groups like this around two years ago much earlier in the cycle. And feeling some concern that the President and the Democratic primaries are sucking up all the energy.
I know they’re not. But I keep finding myself somehow sparing a brain cell or two to wonder about how Virginia is doing in their effort to complete the wave they started in ‘17. My wife has been wondering the same thing.
Just because we’re in Texas and we’re lumped in with the Super Tuesday primary doesn’t mean we don’t have time now to think about our friends in the east.
After seeing SquireForYou’s post, we immediately donated… then my wife compared that list to a separate one she’d compiled for PostcardsToVoters and created a second ActBlue group. She included a couple freshman that she wants to make sure keep their seats — Danica Roem and Hala Ayala. The rest are running to flip seats, including two running for Senate.
Please donate, volunteer for, and get the word out about their people-powered campaigns, today!
