The primaries are over, the candidates are set and now it’s time to focus on the big picture. Democrats across the country, spanning the left side of the political spectrum, need to win and they need to win big in many cases to overcome gerrymandering. Everything we do between now and election day should be done while keeping the most vulnerable and disenfranchised among us in mind.
From September 11th right up until election day on November 6th, we are going to be highlighting the battleground races in the U.S. House and Senate across the country. It's going to take time to feature them all on the show, and we're trying to highlight the most impactful races first, so we've put together this page for anyone who wants to get the entire lay of the land ASAP. We've also included the list of Justice Democrats and Brand New Congress candidates running in November & links to finding ballot measures by state.
