I spent some time today knocking doors with @McCormickForCO in Longmont, Colorado, about thirty miles north of Denver, in what I am 99.9% sure is the only veterinarian vs. veterinarian Congressional primary in America.pic.twitter.com/79LnO1PpYg

As I was driving to Karen's house, I found myself behind this charming motorist, who also had a completely shattered windshield. I think because he knew too much.pic.twitter.com/2zCIMUYHpO
Karen is one of the many, many women who have been galvanized into running for political office for the first time in 2018. Her district is a vast amalgalm of outer Denver suburbs, the Front Range, and the eastern half of Colorado, full of conservative Great Plains farmers
The incumbent in her district is a do-nothing congressman, like so many right now, but with a uniquely creepy aspect. A former prosecutor, he once refused to try a rape case, despite an audiotaped confession, because he said the jury would consider it a case of "buyer's remorse"
He also got booted out of the Justice Department for tipping off the defendants in a gun case, and then took political contributions from one of those defendants later. An overall charming guy:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Buck
My favorite part of canvassing with Karen today was finding this beehive covered with child-attracting stickers.pic.twitter.com/VAphM2mlCe
A lot of politics right now comes down to figuring out, what can one person do? Karen's answer to this question involves a fair amount of self-sacrifice, for her and her family. For voters in Colorado, it comes down to bothering to vote in a primary. Voter turnout remains so low!
For the rest of us, it comes down to pitching in a few bucks to help candidates get out there, amid the rain and angry bees, and talk to voters rather than cold-calling donors. Every bit of financial help from the Great Slate means a few hours less spent on dreaded "call time"
Both @McCormickForCO and @RepDMB (who I'll see on Tuesday) are facing a contested primary on June 26. Every dollar we can give right now matters, so if you can spare some of them, please donate tonight. We need a new Congress, and this is how we get there. https://secure.actblue.com/donate/great_slate …pic.twitter.com/2FpwT5nvuL
