The battle for control of Congress is coming down to a few critical races. We have chosen five Democratic candidates to support today and we need your help. Our research has found that these are five of the closest and most critical races to take control of the House and put a stop to the Bush agenda.
Right now is a critical moment: there are 40 days to the election and we are 36 hours away from the September 30 filing deadline. Money given today will not only help candidates fund advertising and field campaigns, it will also show the media and the Republicans how committed we are to victory.
With the help of a major donor and StartChange supporter: we match every dollar you gave in the next 36 hours up to $2000 for each candidate. That’s a $10,000 match. Please contribute before midnight on September 30!
UPDATE (10/05 2:45pm): Congratulations! We’ve exceeded our match goals and together we’ve raised more than $27,000 for these candidates! If you haven’t contributed yet, please do so today. Thank you!!

Darcy is a successful Microsoft businesswoman taking on conservative Republican Dave Reichert, who only won 51% of the vote in 2004. Darcy comes from a family of veterans with deep roots in Washington State, and she has a great chance to put this seat solidly in the blue column. Let’s get Darcy to 51% in 2006!

PA-08 (Map)

Tired of Republicans who act tough on national security, but put our nation at risk with ill-considered policies? Then, throw a few bucks to Patrick Murphy, a Democrat and an Iraq veteran taking on Pennsylvania Republican Mike Fitzgerald. Patrick Murphy is young, bright, exciting - and he has a great chance to win - but he needs our help.
