NY 19th . . . chance for a Dem pickup . . . and an unexpected one . . .
John Hall won yesterday's primary with 49% against three others . . . he's a progressive, anti-war environmentalist who will be GREAT candidate against Sue Kelly, a totally nondescript BushCo toady . . .

New York's 19th isn't on any of the "possible Dem pickup" lists that I've seen . . . so it will be a nice surprise to many when we elect Hon. John Hall, Member of Congress, in November . . .

1. Thanks for putting that story out there.
Can you link to Hall's website for those who want to donate to him?

3. Link here
http://www.johnhallforcongress.com/

And I'm of the opinion that anywhere that doesn't have e-voting is a potential pickup. And even where there is e-voting, winning isn't impossible
