You folks never cease to amaze me! Yesterday we raised $320,000 in a last minute push to help get Democrats elected all over the country. It is simply one of the most FANTASTIC things I have ever seen happen on this site. We should all be extremely proud of ourselves. To quote Howard Dean "YEAAAAARRRRRGHHHH!!!"
As Kos said last night, it's now time to shift our focus. While money donations will still be appreciated by the campaigns, it is more important right now to concentrate on the ground game. The 50-State Strategy has worked, the money has been raised, it's now
50-State Get Out The Vote time!
With only a little over a week left, it may be more effective to contact the campaigns directly to see what you can do to help. With that in mind, below the fold you will find a list of all 435 House races, 33 Senate races, and 22 Governors races, with links to each of thier websites. Please contact them and help them Win this November 7th.

For those of you concerned about election integrity issues
If you are walking precincts the
DNC has made available flyers and door hangers you can print out to inform voters of thier rights. It also lists the
1-888-DEM-VOTE number they can call to report voting problems.
The
Election Protection coalition has set up a voter assistance hotline at
1-866-OUR-VOTE. They need people to man the hotline as well as provide support to ground teams they are deploying in areas they consider to be high risk for voter disenfranchisement. Anyone can volunteer to help, but they especially need attorneys, paralegals, and law students.
And last but not least - VOTE!

Note: I will be posting this list frequently between now and election day. If you see any errors, or have links to campaign websites that I don't have, please let me know in the comments and I will correct them.
