WA-03: Blue America endorses Pridemore

Full Disclosure: I am a supporter and volunteer for Senator Craig Pridemore's campaign to succeed Brian Baird as U.S. Representative in the 3rd District. My opinions do not necessarily reflect those of Pridemore for Congress.

Great news today as Blue America has decided to endorse Craig Pridemore for Congress. Craig becomes the third candidate backed by Blue America, the others being Congressman Alan Grayson and Marcy Winograd who are repeating as supported candidates, and the only first-time congressional candidate currently receiving its support.

Tomorrow at 11 a.m. Senator Pridemore will join John Amato and Howie Klein in a live chat over at Crooks and Liars, where he will take questions and inform you about why he is running for Congress in the 3rd District.

Instead of waiting until tomorrow to find out who Craig is and why he's such a great progressive champion for the 3rd Congressional District, go check out the video he's just released. To summarize, Craig Pridemore has the strongest record of all the candidates on issues that matter to working families, he supports equality for everyone and reproductive freedom for women, he's a staunch protector of the environment (including authoring the landmark state law to keep electronic waste out of landfills), and opposes the corporate giveaways we've seen in recent years. In short, Craig represents the Democratic wing of the Democratic party.

If you like what you see in Craig Pridemore as a candidate, please consider sending him any amount you can spare (every penny makes a difference), join his supporters on Facebook , or join his official Facebook fan page.

And don't forget to join Craig at Crooks and Liars at 11 a.m. tomorrow morning.
