Local endorsements like this make it much harder for Lipinski to blame all his opposition on pesky national sources like @theintercept
Show this thread
Three Indivisible groups, in a first for the organization, are endorsing a challenger to a sitting Democrat in Congress. Indivisible chapters from Western Springs, La Grange Park and Brookfield are backing @Marie4Congress over @RepLipinski

interesting! my local indivisible group is endorsing the establishment candidate and is actively collaborating with local party officials. good to see they aren't all corrupt.
-
which chapter is that?
-
NJ 4th District. nearly all of the group's leadership is working actively for the establishment candidate's campaign and they working directly with county Dem leadership on many fronts.

Seems very similar the the presidential Russian MO. Create discord among Democrats and the Republican comes in and take the seat because the supporters go after each other!
-
Not in this case. The incumbent lipinski might as well be GOP. He is awol with his constituents and on the wrong side of issues. Inherited his seat pretty much. Marie Newman is a great option.

@downwithtyranny has all the details on how Dan's daddy gave him the seat. We've been#DoneWithDan for a while. We were first (we believe) out-of-state pac to endorse Marie for#IL03. https://goo.gl/r8FwTn pic.twitter.com/dzQXptvu1t

Blue America is not just ahead of the curve, they are a path finder. When you stick to Progressive principals and don't let Party leadership define a race, you set the direction for elections.

It’s about time for us to challenge those who claim the title “Democrat” but don’t vote in step with its principles. It’s not enough to claim a “D”... Kudos to activists for giving their constituents more choice in deciding what they want their party to stand for.

Good for them!
@DemocratWit decided to pick the progressive to support, too. We’re writing#PostcardsToVoters for@Marie4Congress -
If lipinski's challenger is far left and lipinski is perceived as a centrist you have helped the GOP pick up a seat. Don't do trump's work for him.
-
No, not “far left”... progressive. A real Democrat. Lipinski is an anti-choice gop-lite conservadem, which isn’t what the country needs.
-
I saw Marie Newman's positions. Nothing about jobs, climate change, clean energy, etc. Not good.

Think you should update this to include Newman's endorsements from EMILY's List and the SEIU?
