This post features a collection of 28 diaries. (KS-Sen) KS Sen Forgets where his kids went to school, Tea Party & Supporters Pounce by tmservo433 - Republican Senator Pat Roberts joked that he came back to Kansas when he had an opponent, then pointed out that his kids went to school in Kansas... for all of three months before finishing high school in a D.C. suburb. The Teabaggers are of course using his gaffs to their advantage. (IN-02) IN-02: Lets put this race on the radar by Laurel in CA - Indianas congressional delegation is mostly bright red. This year, Democrats may have a chance to capture the 2nd District House seat. Better yet, the Democratic candidate, Joe Bock, seems to be a genuine progressive. (WI-Referendum) Should Counties Put a BadgerCare Expansion Question on the Fall Ballot? by WI Budget Project - At least 11 Wisconsin counties may add an advisory referendum to the November ballot on whether or not BadgerCare should be expanded with federal funding. Heres a look at the considerations involved. Why is Automatic Voter Registration--such an elusive Concept by Jamess - A diary that discusses the profoundly powerful idea of passing laws to automatically register everyone who gets a drivers license or a state ID; passing pre-registration laws like the one that the GOP repealed in North Carolina; passing online voter registration and same day registration. Oregon made moves in that direction in 2013. Its time for other blue states to step up. This is the 27th weekly edition of Election Diary Rescue. It covers rescued down-ticket election diaries published from Sunday, July 6 through Saturday, July 12. We hope you enjoy the following gems dug up by our dedicated team of miners. VOLUNTEER ALERT! As the election approaches we will be switching back to our traditional daily schedule for producing this blog. We will need a few good Kossacks to join the team.
