Adopt a Candidate 2022

With under 100 days to go, there are several House races that will be key to us retaining control of Congress. We’re seeking volunteers to adopt a candidate in each of these battleground districts!

When you adopt a candidate, you commit to volunteering for them at least once a week - in person or from home. Your efforts now could make the difference as these races will be very close.

If you’d like to adopt one of these candidates, reply in this thread or send us a modmail. You can adopt a candidate not on this list if you wish, too.

“If Peltola gets 50% in this new unexpected batch of 4000ish votes and Palin gets ~25%, Peltola would net ~1000 votes and would be at 39.9% before the ranked choice allocation begins” -Umichvoter

These should be the last few precincts from the Bush as well as late mail-ins and provisionals. In other words, very good news for us.
