Make a difference, take the pledge, go out, and Vote.
With abortion rights, the economy, and many more critical issues on the ballot, there’s no better time to get out and vote! It can be daunting to find the motivation to vote this fall, but the only way to get better outcomes from our leadership is by electing better leaders. There is a lot at stake, with abortion and inflation clashing as the top issues in the midterm elections. It’s not surprising considering the economic circumstances and how the Democrats responded after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Democrats leading issue for this election cycle is abortion followed by healthcare, and inflation. While Republicans leading issue is inflation followed by immigration and abortion.
Here is the scoop on the make-or-break races that will decide which party controls the Senate.
One of the most closely-watched races of the election challenges Democratic Lt. Gov. Fetterman against Trump-backed Republican celebrity Dr. Mehmet Oz. While Fetterman leads Oz, the gap between the two candidates has gone down considerably recently, a polling average shows.
Another tight race is between Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock, a Baptist pastor whose special-election victory in 2021 helped Democrats win a paper-thin Senate majority, and Republican Herschel Walker, a famed former football pro and business owner backed by Trump.
