I updated this list together around September 18, 2006. I used the following sources:
Election 2006 Projection Page
Larry Sabato’s Crystal Ball
U.S. congressional elections in 2006 SourceWatch:
Fighting Dem Vets for Congress
My goal was to identify races where the Democratic candidate has a good chance of winning and where that Democratic candidate has less money than the Republican.
Lamont may not quite fit this criteria, but I believe that he should be supported. Tammy Duckworth may be holding her own with financing, but again she is a very compelling candidate.
I also favored Fighting Dems.
NOTE: I rounded generally rounded fundraising dollars to the nearest million.
I am donating to the following candidates via the Netroots Page:
Darcy Burner
Eric Massa
James Webb
Jay Fawcett
Jon Tester
Joseph Sestak Jr
Linda Stender
Ned Lamont
Patrick Murphy

Casey is “pro-life”, but he would be a lot better than Santorum. Santorum has lots of money and dirty tricks.
