Ten Dems

Working to elect Democrats to the Senate and House in 2022

Site last updated: August 6, 2022 - updated often 


The aim of this website is to provide the most effective donating and volunteering options to help Democrats retain control of the U.S. Senate & House in 2022 – where your money and time are likely to make the greatest difference.


1. List of super-priority candidates for donations & volunteering now 


Below are the super-priority candidates, who meet all 4 of the following criteria:

  • According to experts, they are in the closest races: the race is expected to be within 1 or 2 percentage points.
  • According to experts, they are the candidates who most need donations now.
  • Their states have completed redistricting.
  • They are not in a competitive Democratic primary.


TEN DEMS SUPER-PRIORITY LIST - August 2022

(click links for candidate profile, why race is expected to be close, and how to donate or volunteer)


SENATE SUPER-PRIORITY LIST

  • Mandela Barnes (WI)
  • Catherine Cortez Masto (NV) 


HOUSE SUPER-PRIORITY LIST 

  • Chris Deluzio (PA-17) 
  • Jared Golden (ME-2)
  • Adam Gray (CA-13) 
  • Susie Lee (NV-3)
  • Frank Mrvan (IN-1) (profile coming soon)
  • Rudy Salas (CA-22) 
  • Susan Wild (PA-7) 


NOTE: Our priority lists are provisional because we are awaiting a few primaries.  


2. Supplementary list of candidates for donations & volunteering now 


The following candidates meet most of the criteria listed in point 1 above: very close races within 1 or 2 percentage points, redistricting completed, no competitive primary. They also need donations and volunteers. The only difference is that the 10 super-priority candidates in point 1 have an even more pressing need of donations right now. Our super-priority list in point 1 will always be limited to 10 candidates, which makes for difficult decisions each month, after talking with experts. We hope that those who donate to, or volunteer for, the 10 super-priority candidates will also consider doing the same for the following candidates, insofar as their resources and time permit.
