IMPORTANT Primary Senate Races Left: And How You Can Help

[Jane Long]

FWIW...Re: TX 23...I don’t know about Hurd, but I supported Quico Conseco, last time he won...and I’m not even in his district. Hurd may be rock solid, I just haven’t heard about him, until now.

Conseco seems like a strong conservative and he’s a business owner. He’s the one who had the kurfuffle with TSA...claiming they violated his civil rights at the SA airport.

Thanks for posting this thread, CM55!!

These races are VERY important ~ as we all know we’re fighting as hard against the GOPe, as we are against the Dims.

FWIW, Senate Conservatives Funds have all of these mentioned candidates (and a few more) listed on their endorsed page, where you can donate directly, and individually, to each candidate, in one (total) donation.

Here’s the link....

Thank you!!!

why is Hurd getting so much support in the district if he is unelectable? And will the Freeper community want to rally around Canseco in near unanimity while the local conservatives are split? Seems peculiar.

is Canseco the consensus choice on here? Is there a group on Freeper that will rebut us and want to back Hurd? Hurd is black. A black anglo?

My mistake in misidentifying Hurd. I actually didn’t know he was Black until I saw his photo.

[campaignPete R-CT]

TN-4 is of no interest to Freepers as a group, from what you say. unless Tracy is a rino who needs to be stopped and he aint

I was afraid that would be the case.

LA CD 6 will be a knock down drag out if all these candidates get into the
fray on Nov. 4. The top two go to a run off on Dec. 6 if no one gets the 50% +1 vote.

Bob Bell (R) - Retired Navy Officer & Tea Party Activist
Norby Chabert (R) - State Sen. & Political Consultant

Norm Clark (R) - Police Officer, Graduate Student & Navy Veteran
Paul Dietzel (R) - Businessman
Cassie Felder (R) - Attorney
Gary Graphia (R) - Ex-Gubernatorial Executive Counsel
Garret Graves (R) - Ex-State Coastal Protection Authority Chair

Richard Lieberman (D) - Realtor & Ex-Paralegal
Rufus Craig (Libertarian) - Attorney & '04/'12 Nominee

Dan Claitor is the bad one on the “R” side, he is a left-winger out to wreak havoc. I’d vote for Fast Eddie Edwards before I’d vote for him. Graves & Dietzel have the most amount of money so far (Claitor in 3rd place). Edwards only has $33k, but he still has the most money of any of the D’s running.

[deport]

Dietzel also has the LSU name behind him if that means anything.

[campaignPete R-CT]

in AL-6, there are 4 candidates raising money
DeMarco 850k
Brook 490k
Mathis 390k
Palmer 405k

I think we should go with Palmer and Mathis, get them into the runoff. The worst case is Brook and DeMarco in the runoff. THis is an interesting one.

I wish some private sector corp would offer Alexander a position he suddenly couldn’t resist. Maybe several could pool their resources and create a private sector place for him :>}

[fieldmarshaldj]

I liked State Sen. Scott Beason, who stepped up to challenge Bachus in 2012. He’s more than likely the reason Bachus decided to finally retire after 22 years.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Unfortunately, our liberal RINO Governor would just shoehorn another Country Club liberal into the Senate seat. We absolutely must reform the way we nominate candidates in TN. Close the primaries to ensure legitimacy and runoffs are an absolute must. That a person could be nominated with 12% of the vote (or less) in a heavily contested multi-candidate field is antithetical to representative governance.

we’re whittling down on the South now. WE need a lotta input

Carl Domino about as good as we are going to get ... is he a shoo-in or could he be challenged? He is better than Schlesinger.

there is nothing crucial in GA until we get to the runoffs ...
GA 12
Allen and Dutton are great. Keep Yu out of the runoff in this 3-way race. But does Yu have a chance? maybe he is not a threat

GA11
I think we should leave Lindsey until the runoff and he might be unbeatable ... could be Barr in the runoff.

GA10 I think we ignore Gerrard unless he gets to the runoff

GA 01 McCollum might be unbeatable ... GRTL endorsement
“Protect the Sanctity of Life”
Martin is no threat

State Sen. Jim Tracy isn’t a bad sort, but he is more an establishment guy and has raised upwards of $1.3 million. He had an opportunity to run back in 2010 when he could’ve had the nomination just for the asking, but didn’t want to run against the execrable Lincoln Davis.

Did he live in TN-4 at the time? In 2010, Tracy ran in the open TN-6 and narrowly lost. I thought the 2012 round of redistricting put him in TN-4 as it is now.
