If you are concerned about Trump, you should be concerned about flipping the Senate. 2018 is going to be brutal for Democrats. BUT right now Democrats have a chance to flip a Senate seat! In Louisiana, there is a run-off on December 10, and there is a chance that the Democrat, Foster Campbell, can win.
How can he win in a Republican state? There are several reasons, but the main one is that run-offs have very low voter turnout. So, a get out the vote effort is crucial. With a strong effort, Democrats can win. Democrats just took back the governorship here, and the Republican candidate is a hold-your-nose candidate who doesn’t inspire anyone to get to the polls. Foster Campbell, by contrast, is well-liked. Yes, he is conservative on some issues, but the key point is that he will be a brick in the Senate wall against Trump.
But Daily Kos doesn’t even include this run-off in their Elections Digest! No one is telling you how to help. If you are scared, if you are wondering what you can do, look no further. You can go to fostercampbell2016.com and volunteer for the virtual phone bank (make your calls from your home, no matter where you live) and/or donate. Come on people! Let’s start the work now.
