[Oe List ...] CALL TO ALL 10 10 018

[Randy Williams]

Check out Lorie Burch who is running a very competitive race in Texas’ 3rd Congressional District to replace Sam Johnson, the Republican who is retiring after having been there longer than God. Lorie has a strong GOP opponent and the battle is uphill, but it’s winnable.

>> “Give me land, lots of land, under starry skies above—Don’t fence me in!” Ah yes Texas, you didn’t think you were immune from the color blue and reducing the gender gap, did you? I just donated to these three women with super powers (to take back Congress) and hope you Texans will get on their chuck wagons!

>> TEX. 7TH DISTRICT
>> Competitive race
>> Lizzie Fletcher (D)
>> Lawyer
>> Fletcher won a bitter Democratic primary over activist Laura Moser in a district that party leaders are hoping to flip in November. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee published opposition research on Moser, who still made it to a runoff election against Fletcher but was unable to build momentum during the next two months. Fletcher is a first-time candidate. She faces a male opponent in the general election.

>> Hegar served three tours in Afghanistan and later successfully lobbied the Obama administration to lift the ban on women serving in combat. In a viral introductory ad, she shows viewers how she opened “doors” throughout her career, facing many that slammed in her face. Behind one closed door was her now-opponent, Rep. John Carter, who she says in the ad she tried to lobby to lift the combat ban.
