It's October and all the primaries are over. For the past 18 months I've been donating $1000 to a different challenger for Congress each month. How's it gone? Well, most of them didn't win, but they helped move the races toward more reform and many are campaigning for the new nominees. No regrets!

The two who won nomination are Peggy Flanagan, for MN Senator and Josh Turek for IA Senate. Great candidates with good shots. I also supported Leaders We Deserve which got 34 challengers nominated. The others, who I expect to see leading and winning in the future are:

In addition to the candidates above, I donated another $4500 to candidates I specifically know and support. $22,500 is a LOT of money for me, but if it helped chipped away against America's slide into authoritarianism it is well worth it. The general election is November 2. GET OUT AND VOTE!
