started fundraising immediately on RBG's death as soon as it was known.

Maybe kick a few bucks Greenfield's way, too.

1. As an Iowan, I thank you for posting this.

5. When I was 4 & 5 years old I lived in Story City, Iowa. nt

2. Good idea, last I heard they're neck and neck.

[tblue37]

4. Yes. People have been, quite appropriately, donating to Jaime Harrison of South Carolina, to

defeat Lindsey Graham, because they are tied, so we could maybe win that one. But Greenfield is also tied, so people should consider donating to her, too.

3. Right on. But Theresa Greenfield has more than just a chance.

I think she's favored to win.

Donating to her is an excellent idea.

6. I dropped One Large last night to the Get Mitch ActBlue campaign and 1/13th went to her.

Here's a tweet about it:

In tribute to the extraordinary life of Justice Ginsberg, I’m matching donations to this fund up to $10,000 tonight.

Please give what you can and post receipts here.
🙏🏼

This spreads your funds among all the races that we need to win. Not just Mitch.

9. Donated and yeah Ernst is an anti-science ghoul. nt

11. On the other hand, Democrats have been donating in massive amounts

to Act Blue and probably lots of other places for Democratic candidates since yesterday evening.

12. I just gave a bit to Greenfield, Harrison and Bullock

14. You rock!

15. FiveThirtyEight.com and the tightest Senate races. Iowa is 2nd tightest (R is ahead)

FiveThirtyEight.com - https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-election-forecast/senate/

There is a map where you can hover over a state and see the Senate race(s)

Scroll down a ways, and there is a table below the map, default is sorted by 538's probability of winning. As of Sept 19, in order of the tightest races (these are probabilities that the indicated party will win (all of the Senate races are listed, I'm just showing the top 4 here) :

9/19:
#1 Maine 52% (D),
#2 Iowa 59% (R),
#3 N.Car 62% (D),
#4 Colo 68% (D) .

In 3 of the 4, the Dem has best chance to win. The other, Iowa, has horrible sickening Joni Ernst (R) ahead of Theresa Greenfield -- this after being almost tied.


Click on any row in this table to see the polls for that race

Being from Minnesota, I so want that Iowa puke-wagon out.

16. Thanks for the reminder about Greenfield.

I just donated. I’m also donating to Sara Gideon in Maine and MJ Hegar here in Texas. I would dearly love to see John Cornyn defeated.

I donated to Joh Ossoff, Cal Cunningham, and Amy McGrath early on, but I haven’t kept track of the Ossoff race lately. McGrath has attracted quite a lot of money, and I think Cunningham has been doing well recently. We need all these people to win!

17. Done!

Happy to make that donation!

18. I wasn't aware we had chance to vote out Ernst. I just donated to Theresa Greenfield. Thank

you for this post.

19. Done.
