There was a good article about how incredibly well Democratic fundraising efforts are going this year in the Senate. There was one exception – Michigan where it isn’t so much that the Democratic incumbent is doing badly but that the Republican challenger is raising even more. Gary Peters, the Democratic incumbent, is a a great Senator. But because he’s running against a guy raising tons of money and who did really well against an incumbent Senator in 2018 (losing by only six points), the race is only listed as “Leans Democrat”.
Peters is the kind of Senator we need to support. Let’s raise a little money for him.

Been giving to him monthly since last year. I hope you’ll do a real longshot – Abby Broyles, who’s running against the loathsome Jim Imhof in Oklahoma. After all, Native Americans now own half the state! He can’t be all that popular even if he’s up by 19 points. Here’s a FTFNYT article from last year about how he used his position to keep water levels high for the boat dock at his lake house despite the fact that it causes flooding at a town upstream.

@Mary G: Perhaps too much to hope for, but, man, what a great win that would be.

Thanks for this service, Dougj.

@Baud:
We’ll never know if we don’t try. Same thing I said about Doug Jones back when some jackals didn’t think he could beat Roy Moore. And it was Fauci’s Facebook interview with Jones that got Twitler to start attacking Fauci openly instead of just disappearing him.

@Benw: We have our first zucchini, too big to be good to eat as is, but great grated and made into chocolate cake, which I’m thinking about doing.
