I live in the blood red north of MI and for many years there were no Dems on ballot! We know something of what you all are dealing with so I fully get how hard this accomplishment is! Well done! #solidarity

4. It is time we

consider the possibility of a free (not the libertarian nightmare) Tennessee. Free from the stranglehold of a political party that does not serve their best interests.

2018 will be the first time in years no Republican here runs unopposed by a Democrat.

11. That's a great start

99 of 99 would be even better.

And let's not forget ballot initiatives, city councils, school boards, planning commissions, judges, da's, etc

13. Yay!!!!

[KelleyKramer]

15. Excellent!

We should be doing this in every state

16. Hopefully will also help the Up Ballot state-wide races!!

Potentially a lot more Dem votes from districts that usually do not get them out will help the Dems flip their Senate seat!! Hopefully Bye Bye Marsha!!

17. if we can break the super majoriies

before the next census then we may be to reduce the gerrymandering. It is so important to get out the vote.

This is a major accomplishment. I salute all persons who throw their hats into the ring and agree to run. This is great news
