6 Key Senate Contests for the Final Weeks

Council for a Livable World has highlighted six key Senate contests for help in the last weeks of the campaign.

There is a real threat that this election can dramatically change U.S. national security policy by electing a Congress that blocks President Obama’s nuclear weapons agenda.

Our analysis of key Senate races indicates where your contributions will be most effective. These candidates can win.

The Tea Party is a threat to our nation and our national nuclear policy.

Candidates of the far right have won Republican primaries in Delaware, Kentucky, Colorado and other states.

Defeating them in November will have a positive impact on American politics for the next generation. Electing them could completely paralyze the Senate.

Five of six of our top priority candidates are in toss-up contests, and one is ahead of a Tea Party candidate.

Chris Coons in Delaware can defeat Christine O’Donnell. Jack Conway in Kentucky can overcome tea party favorite Rand Paul.

Robin Carnahan in Missouri, Joe Sestak in Pennsylvania, Russ Feingold in Wisconsin and Michael Bennet in Colorado can all win their extremely tight elections.

We seek contributions to those highest priority political races where you can make the greatest difference. 100% of your contributions to these political candidates through the Council Candidate Fund are passed on to their campaigns.

Please help these candidates with your contribution of $25, $35, $50 or more.

Your contributions will be spent on important political advertising by these campaigns in the last three weeks of the election.
