Thank you for this! I’m going to start by supporting Kirsten Engel both because we need more environmental experts in Congress and because I’m looking for those reverse coattails.

Cherney has some baggage that could hurt him in the general. I’m going with Conor O’Calaghan for the AZCD1 primary

@Simon thank you for getting out front with these crucial endorsements. And please share with your readers the 2-1/2 minute **Firebreak** animation from the newly launched California Grassroots Alliance explaining how Dems can take back the House via California when we Sweep Six. Video is right on our Alliance home page, and available for linking: https://CAGrassrootsAlliance.org

Thank you for all you do.

For any letter- or postcard-writers in Hopium land who want to support Simon's new slate of candidates:

Field Team 6 (www.fieldteam6.org) is writing postcards to register new voters in US House district AZ-01, state legislative districts AZ-16 to AZ-19 (overlap with House district AZ-06??), CA-27 and CA-47, and NY with no districts specified.

Vote Forward (www.votefwd.org) currently has political letter-writing campaigns for all the CA and NY districts on Simon's list; 2 campaigns for AZ (as a whole) have run out of names, but I expect they will add more soon. (Vote Forward has indicted that they may add more House district campaigns in the states with key senate races, so check back on AZ-01 and AZ-06).

Activate America (www.activateamerica.org) has all the AZ, CA, and NY districts on their target list, but currently only has active postcard campaigns for CA-13, CA-27, CA-41, and NY-19. They also do phone- and text-banking which should pick up later in the cycle for the general election.

Grassroots Democratic HQ (https://grassrootsdems.org/postcards/) currently has postcards for CA-13, CA-22, CA-27, and CA-41

NOTE: I am unaware of any grassroots postcard or letter campaigns woking in NJ-07 or OR-05 at this time, but i'm sure the candidates will be sponsoring phone- and/or text-banks. That holds true for ALL the candidates.

I spent a whole day trying to find a page like this and it even has a 'Single donation' button.

Now, would you PLEASE DO THIS FOR THE SENATE TOO ???????

I am not convinced that senatemajority.com would use my money as wisely as you would ;) Here is their donation distributions chart: http://www.galaxyapps.us/DonateLinkAtSenateMajorityDotCOM.jpg

I will be sharing this page! Thanks...

Why don’t you think they are using your donations wisely? 88.8% going to campaigns seems like a good percentage.

Because it looks to me like 88.8% goes to "Independent expenditures and contributions to other political organizations". Sounds a little fishy to me.

Hi Simon - writing from Colorado, metro Denver in CD4 where carpet bagger Lauren Boebert moved. She won the R primary. The D candidate is Trisha Calvarese. She could beat Lauren but will need some extra $$ to do this. Can she be added the Winning the House List? Thanks!

Simon: can you create a single page for people looking to get involved with field operations for the all the House races. If we (Force Multiplier, for example) want to drive people to your site to get involved, there's no simple way to connect. Steven
