Lansing State Journal Endorses Bob Alexander
The Lansing State Journal, the largest paper in our district, just endorsed us. More and more, the politically savvy crowd is recognizing that we've got the right man for the job. We need some cash to get out our message and get out the vote.
Rogers hasn't done job; vote Alexander
A Lansing State Journal editorial
Bob Alexander selected by Senator Russ Feingold as one of his “Progressive Patriots”
Feingold, writes that the ten candidates selected as “Progressive Patriots,” are:
challengers in emerging races, all of whom were nominated by you. These candidates have worked hard and made their races competitive, often without much support from traditional Democratic institutions. I'd like to give their GOTV operations a big boost, but to do that we're going to need your help. Our goal is to raise $50,000 so that we can contribute $5,000 to each of these 10 candidates.
