Non-Oklahoma Endorsements

Here are my other endorsements. These are for races or issues that will not be on the Oklahoma ballot.

Candidates:

Oregon Senate: Jeff Merkley. A good Progressive Democrat to replace a bad Republican.

California U.S. House 8th District: Cindy Sheehan. I endorse Cindy's campaign as a protest against Nancy Pelosi's spinelessness in the face of the criminal Bush regime.

Colorado U.S. House 2nd District: Jared Polis. Polis would make history as the first openly gay candidate to be elected to Congress as a non-incumbent. He's also a good Progressive.

Minnesota Senate: Al Franken. Let's honor Paul Wellstone's memory by putting a real Progressive back in his seat.


Issues:

California: No on Proposition 8. Protect marriage equality.

Florida: No on Amendment 2. Don't write discrimination into Florida's constitution.

Arizona: No on Proposition 102. Arizona defeated this attempt to write discrimination into the state constitution in 2006. Let's defeat it again.
