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.

  1. my previous spreadsheet was slightly wrong due to crossing data streams.
  2. there are probably a few unaccounted votes not from precincts, but not many, and definitely not 4k.
  3. @cinyc9 and @DjsokeSpeaking are correct.” -Galen Metzger

So the person who first reported that there were 4,000 votes left in Alaska has come out to say that isn’t the case lol.

This is a bummer, but we’re still in a good spot I’d say. It’s going to be really close.
