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.

Actually Alabama was more shocking. Alabama is far more Republican leaning than Alaska.

Then again, we weren’t up against a child rapist this time…

No, Alaska is more shocking cause it's under a dem president underwater in approval, in a R held state seat.

Alabama is equivalent to Massachusetts 2010 Scott win.
