Women will decide this election. And they should. Their rights have been attacked especially hard over the last couple of years, and they deserve a chance to fight back. I want to help them fight.
Wayne's final TV budget deadline is on Friday, but he is short the $8,642 he needs to go head-to-head with Eric Cantor.
Help us fight for women by donating now.
Eric Cantor has spent the last two years leading the charge against women. He has led his partys War on Women -- an unacceptable concept in the 21st century. Wayne and I wont stand for it. We want to mobilize people who stand with the women of Virginia so that women have a person they trust to stand up for them in Congress.
Virginias women deserve better than what they have been given. Donate now to make sure that women in Virginia have someone they can trust in Washington.
Thank you for all of your support. Wayne and I appreciate it immensly.
--Katherine Powell

How did they help you?
Cha
(319,067 posts)and sit down so they told me where I could go for that. And, questions about the ballot..I didn't want to mess up. You had to choose which party and stick with that party on all the choices..which was no problem. Some candidates I wasn't sure about so it was okay if I didn't vote for anyone in that section.
All my Choices won, too! You'll be helpful, elleng!
