Sara Gideon (D-ME)Â is in a close contest against Sen. Susan Collins, and has attracted support from across the country in her bid to upset the previously unbeatable incumbent. She is passionate about arms control, and we know she would be a great ally and advocate for our cause.
Former governor John Hickenlooper (D-CO) is running against one of the most vulnerable Republican Senators, Sen. Cory Gardner, a first-term Senator in what political experts rate as a toss-up race. Hickenlooper cares deeply about nuclear issues, having joined the nuclear freeze movement in the 1980s.
And Amy McGrath (D-KY)Â is directly taking on the least popular Senator in the country, McConnell himself, the master of partisan gridlock. McGrath is already out-fundraising McConnell, who will have essentially unlimited campaign money at his disposal. McGrath, a former military officer, has been outspoken in support of the Iran nuclear deal, and details her thoughts on North Korea and Iran on her campaign website.
