This is my first post and I have been reading kos for about a year now but finally have decided to post tonight. Currently I live in San Jose California Congressional District #16, home to Zoe Lofgren. All districts around where I am located are very blue as I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have much time to give, as I am a full time college student and have plenty of time but little money to give to helping out.
Currently I am very interested in multiple elections accross the country such as WA-08 where I have family, CA-03 and the Oregon Senate race to replace Gordon Smith. I am very interested in all of these races and would like to help out to help get Democrats elected to Congress. While I view the White House as very important I think that the Congress needs more progressives.
I look forward to hearing back from readers and will take your opinions to heart in deciding where I should help out for 2008. I am looking to start volunteer once the semester is over as I will be graduating and taking some time off to get some hands on experience in politics first hand.
