These two infuriating Washington Post headlines speak volumes about
Democrats’ situation heading into the 2022 midterms:
Manchin & Sinema become K Street darlings
Manchin and Sinema are forcing truly terrible choices on Democrats
We’ve endorsed 4 bold progressive candidates with the potential to fix
this. All would flip winnable Senate seats currently held by Republicans.
Two are running in open races in swing states where Republicans are
retiring. NONE accept corporate campaign donations.
[ [link removed] ]Can you chip in $4 to 4 bold progressive Senate candidates working to
replace Republican Senators with not just Democrats, but Democrats who
will fight for everyday people, not corporations and CEOs.
With Republican Senator Rob Portman’s retirement, Ohio’s Senate seat is
wide open. Consumer protection attorney, anti-monopoly advocate, community
organizer, and long-time PCCC ally Morgan Harper can bring together the
coalition Democrats need to win in Ohio: Black voters, women, young
voters, and independents.
Wisconsin is ripe for flipping its Republican-held Senate seat, and recent
polls show bold progressive Mandela Barnes with a 29-point lead in
Wisconsin's Democratic Senate primary. CNN reports that Wisconsin
Republican Senator Ron Johnson's "evolution into a conspiracy promotor"
has driven Republican voters and even some Party leaders to turn on him.
In Missouri, the retiring Republican senator barely won his last election
with 49.2% of the vote. One of the top Republican candidates is the
unhinged, right-wing lunatic who got famous threatening Black Lives Matter
protestors with a gun. Bold progressive, U.S. Marine veteran, and crusader
against corporate monopolies Lucas Kunce is the Democrat who can win in a
decidedly winnable Missouri.
In 2020, Kentucky elected a Democratic Governor. That and these two quotes
from bold progressive 2022 U.S. Senate candidate Charles Booker give us
reason to believe that with support "from the hood to the holler,"
Kentucky can elect a Democratic senator in 2022:
"Kentucky is not a 'red state.' It’s a disenfranchised state. It’s a
place where the number of people who don’t vote outnumber those who do.
If we change that, we will send Rand Paul packing."
"I grew up in one of the poorest zip codes in Kentucky. Both of my
parents had to drop out of high school to help take care of our family.
I’ve had to ration my insulin; and I’ve been homeless. My mom often went
without eating so that I could. I’ve lived the struggle other
politicians only talk about."
With an expanded majority and an expanded Senate map -- led by bold
progressives like these who don't take corporate donations -- no 1 or 2
senators will be able to do what Manchin and Sinema are doing.
[ [link removed] ]Please chip in $4 to 4 progressive Senate candidates fighting for a
bigger AND MUCH BOLDER majority in the Senate that works for everyday
people -- NOT corporations and lobbyists.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
