2010 Essential Races - Who Would You Support?

Let's try something different: Which legislative races do you care about?

Out of over 6,000 state legislative districts up for grabs this year, we've chosen 40 key races to highlight on our 2010 "Essential Races" list. These are 40 critical races that we anticipate will show which way the political tide is turning this fall.

But we recognize our own limitations. There are plenty of other key races all across the country -- so we're asking for your help in identifying them.

For the next few weeks, we'll be accepting nominations from the public for 10 additional state legislative races to be added to our 2010 "Essential Races" list.

Anyone can nominate an Essential Race, and any campaign for state legislature in 2010 is eligible.

It only takes a few clicks, and it could potentially make a huge difference.

Click here to nominate an Essential Race today!

Back in 2008, the Essential Races chosen through public nominations included a lot of campaigns in battleground states, but they also included a few campaigns in states that weren't top targets, but where something about the district or the Democratic nominee made the race unique and deserving of special attention.

We might have overlooked some of those key races without your help, and we'd be foolish not to ask for it again this year.

So who should we add to the list, and why?

Please visit www.dlcc.org/2010Races to nominate an Essential Race today!

Sincerely,

Michael Sargeant
Executive Director
The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee

Fact check: why and/or how?

There are no goals or commitments for the races listed... or what might be nominated.

For that matter these are going to tell the tide... how?

This is just more content-free trolling for oysters.

any on fast track to NOT be a sell out like

murray, cantwell, kerry, gore, clinton, obama, locke, sims, gregroire ...

I'm 50. I was a 9 or 10 buck an hour cook in Boston when Dud-crap-kis and the DLC was gonna make government work better, AND

lying fascists like raygun would have even less government horror stories to lie about,
the public would SUPPORT community investement,
we could start making progress towards progress for all on this globe, instead of more progress for rich pigs at the top staying on top and being even richer pigs.

the DLC sell out wing has done marvelous taking care of their own yuppie sell out asses. the fascists couldn't have better "opponents".

got a list of NON sell outs?
