I'm going to send some cash to some Republicans in a few battles.

Where would it be best utilized?

-McSally (senate)
-Lindsey (senate)
-Collins (senate)
-Cummings (AOC's seat)
-Kim Klasick (Baltimore)

-McSally (senate) - maybe
-Lindsey (senate) -waste of money, he's fine
-Collins (senate) - maybe
-Cummings (AOC's seat) - no chance in hell
-Kim Klasick (Baltimore)- no chance in hell


Donations should be prioritized to:
- Trump campaign
- John James- Michigan Senate race
- Thom Tillis- North Carolina Senate race

House seats are relatively unimportant compared to the Senate. If Biden wins and they take the Senate it's all over. Desperately need Tillis to hang on in NC and James to steal a Dem seat in Michigan.

That NC senate race has to be over now, right? Cal can’t come back from everything flying out now.

Thanks guys, I forgot about John James and Tillis.

I didn't know Tillis was in trouble.

How is Trump Campaign fairing? Are they outspent by Biden?

They are low on cash and Biden is flush in cash. Parscale blew $350M from the Trump campaign coffers on "fundraising", and if Trump loses this is in the top 10 reasons why.

Yep I would agree with Parnell being a house race we should support. If he wins that House race then he's a great candidate for the open Senate seat in '22.

May I suggest Alek Skarlatos the American Hero is making a race of the Oregon district. It's moved to lean from likely DEM and polls show him closing.


ALEK FOR CONGRESS

I guess anything will help but we know there's several anti Trump billionaires buying hundreds of millions of dollars of air time to run political ads for Dim politicians.

Cummings unseating AOC would give me great satisfaction. Klacik definitely needs to be in there as well.

Good option. I found out the hard way when you donate to any campaign that has RNC at the bottom of the page then they decide how to spend your money and who to spend it on. I'll never again enrich their coffers, just individual candidates themselves.

I would suggest Tillis first, then Collins, then McSally. All in tight races, Tillis and Collins stand best chances of hanging on. Gardner may be another one although I think he’s like McSally, a bit of a long shot. He’s a worthy republican though and might still have a chance.

Graham is going to win, he’s fine. Waste.

AOC is going to win easily. Waste.

As much as I love Klacik, she’s going to lose by 30 points. Waste.

What about James? He's in a tight race and that's picking up a Dem seat. Huge.

Homesick, I don't do it either. I'm not sending the Republican Senate or Congressional committees money. I'll send my money where I want and I don't want them spending my money on primary candidates that can be their yes men.

LuckyTiger,
Are you saying Gardner and McSally are long shots to win?

Man, we are in serious trouble if they are "long shots".

Gardner has like <10% of being re-elected, McSally at <35% chance. CO is gone blue forever. AZ will be blue by '24 at the latest. But Trump can still lose AZ and CO and win and GOP can still keep the Senate even if it loses CO and AZ. That's why NC, ME, MT, IA, GA, MI, MN races are so important.
