Back by popular demand: It's the official My Cats Donating-to-Democrats Cheat Sheet! Following are our recommendations for the most important 2022 Senate races to support with your hard-earned cash. (House version to come.) We cats PURR.
Tier One
- Mandela Barnes — Wisconsin*
- Cheri Beasley — North Carolina**
- Val Demings — Florida*
- John Fetterman — Pennsylvania**
- Tim Ryan — Ohio**
- Raphael Warnock — Georgia§
*Repellent Republican incumbent running ineptly for re-election
**Republican retiring, appalling GOP nominee trying to hold the seat
§Democrat running to hold the seat, pathetic candidate cynically nominated by the GOP
Tier Two
- Nevada — Catherine Cortez Masto should be at the top of your Tier Two donation list.
- Arizona — Mark Kelly has a lot of money, but sure, throw some his way if you feel like it.
- New Hampshire — Maggie Hassan is in better shape than she was before, but oh, go ahead.
- Iowa — We still like to think that Iowans won't go for 88-year-old Chuck Grassley's "Make Me the Next Strom Thurmond" campaign, and that something bad is going to come out about him in the next round of January 6 hearings. Plus, Admiral Mike (not Al) Franken is a good candidate. Let's put him in striking distance.
"I will stand by my predictions a few weeks ago that if the Democrats keep working as hard as they are now, we will add three seats net in the Senate. And that’s the floor. Depending on events, it could be six." (Former DNC chair Howard Dean)
"Public polls in recent weeks show Rubio [in Florida] in the mid-40s and struggling. In the last two public polls in North Carolina, Budd is at 42. Keep an eye on both these states. Republicans are underperforming there as they are just about everywhere else." (Democratic strategist Simon Rosenberg)
