      <pageblurb>After Election Day, only 149 votes separated NOW PAC endorsed Ohio Congressional candidate Mary Jo Kilroy from Republican Steve Stivers. They&amp;apos;re still hand-counting thousands of provisional ballots, fighting challenges, and because of the slim margin a full re-count is very likely.  Note: Even maxed-out donors can contribute to a recount fund, since it does not count against the contribution limit.</pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>Jim Martin (D) is in a runoff with incumbent Senator Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.).  Martin, who has a record of supporting women&amp;apos;s rights in the Georgia legislature, would be an important vote in the U.S. Senate to help break conservative filibusters. </pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>In another potential filibuster-busting race, Al Franken is facing a recount against Minnesota incumbent Senator Norm Coleman. With just 206 votes separating the two, a mandatory recount began on November 19, and a final tally is likely by December 19.  Note: Even maxed-out donors can contribute to a recount fund, since it does not count against the contribution limit.</pageblurb>
