  • June 19, 2020 Volume 4, No
    This issue brought to you by Georgia Senate: The Road to Redemption By Jacob Rubashkin JUNE 19, 2020 VOLUME 4, NO. 12 Jon Ossoff has been the punchline of an expensive joke for the last three years. But the one-time failed House candidate might get the last laugh in a Senate race that has been out of the spotlight until recently. 2020 Senate Ratings Much of the attention around Georgia has focused on whether it’s a Toss-Up presidential battleground and the special election to fill the seat left by GOP Sen. Johnny Isakson. Collins (R-Maine) Tillis (R-N.C.) Polls consistently show Joe Biden running even with President McSally (R-Ariz.) Donald Trump, and Biden’s emerging coalition of non-white and Tilt Democratic Tilt Republican suburban voters has many Democrats feeling that this is the year they turn Georgia blue. Gardner (R-Colo.) In the race for the state’s other seat, appointed-GOP Sen. Kelly Lean Democratic Lean Republican Loeffler has been engulfed in an insider trading scandal, and though Peters (D-Mich.) KS Open (Roberts, R) the FBI has reportedly closed its investigation, it’s taken a heavy toll on Daines (R-Mont.) her image in the state. While she began unknown, she is now deeply Ernst (R-Iowa) unpopular; her abysmal numbers have both Republican and Democratic opponents thinking they can unseat her. Jones (D-Ala.) All this has meant that GOP Sen. David Perdue has flown under the Likely Democratic Likely Republican radar. But that may be changing now that the general election matchup Cornyn (R-Texas) is set.

  • 2020 Senate Overview: Senate Is (Still) in Play
    This issue brought to you by 2020 Senate Overview: Senate is (Still) In Play By Nathan L. Gonzales & Jacob Rubashkin APRIL 3, 2020 VOLUME 4, NO. 7 The spread of coronavirus has thrown even the most mundane tasks into uncertainty, yet the fight for the Senate remains the same. Control of the Senate was on the line before the health crisis and continues to be at stake in November. 2020 Senate Ratings Over the last year, the size and scope of the battlefield has evolved, Toss-Up almost all in favor of Democrats. Minnesota and New Hampshire, Collins (R-Maine)# Tillis (R-N.C.) currently held by Democrats, have dropped from the list of most McSally (R-Ariz.) competitive races, while Republican-held seats in Texas, Kansas, an additional Georgia seat and most recently Montana are now in play. Tilt Democratic Tilt Republican Democrats, however, have had a plausible path since at least October. Gardner (R-Colo.)# Republicans are now defending 10 of the 12 most competitive Lean Democratic Lean Republican Senate seats in the country. That discrepancy is part of the reason why Democrats are within striking distance of the net gain of four seats they Peters (D-Mich.) KS Open (Roberts, R) need for a majority. Democrats can also control the Senate by gaining Daines (R-Mont.) three seats and winning the presidential race. Ernst (R-Iowa) Some Republicans believe GOP senators could see a boost from the Jones (D-Ala.) coronavirus crisis because it’s an opportunity to demonstrate tangible Likely Democratic Likely Republican work being done by Congress, including dispersing cash.

    Winds of Change Supporting Organized Voices and Empowered Communities Since 1987 Summer 2018 E Huntington, WV OVEC www.ohvec.org #BreakFreeFromPlastic Tour Visits WV See page 14 ... the biggest thing we can do to reduce ocean plastic pollution over the long term is to produce less plastic. And that starts with opposing the epidemic of new plastic plants and the cheap, fracked natural gas that fuels them. - Emily Jeffers in May 5 Inside Sources: “Want Less Ocean Plastic Pollution? Make Less Plastic” March 22 is World Water Day, and to celebrate, we teamed up with our partners in the Tri-State Water Defense group for a couple of events. First, the Marshall University Native American Student Organization (NASO) led us in a beautiful water blessing ceremony at Harris Riverfront Park on the Ohio River. NASO and others braved the chilly day to participate in honoring the Ohio River and all our water with traditional Native American songs and ceremonies. We also took time to pick up trash along the bank of the river at the park. Although it supplies drinking water to about five million people, the Ohio World is considered to be one of the most polluted rivers in the U.S. The river, and everyone who drinks its Water Day water, could be facing an enormously increased threat if the proposed Appalachian Storage Hub, a massive petrochemical complex, comes to fruition (see stories page 10 and 11). After the ceremony, we all met back at the OVEC office for coffee, snacks, and an intimate showing of the new documentary What Lies Upstream.
