This is it - the final election to decide which Senate candidate we as a community want to direct our energy, enthusiasm, and dollars towards.
I am proud to announce that the two Senate challengers who received the most votes in round one are ... Al Franken and Tom Udall!
Now, it's up to you to vote in the final round, and decide which one of these two outstanding candidates gets to send two emails to the GiveEmHellHarry.com list, helping him build the resources needed to win this fall and reach our 60 Senator filibuster-proof majority.

As a Member of Congress and Attorney General of New Mexico, Tom Udall has earned a reputation as a principled leader who has the integrity to do what is right for New Mexico. In the House, Tom has established himself as a leader on key issues - writing and passing a bill to establish a national renewable energy standard, voting against the Iraq War, working to expand preventive health care, attempting to increase well-deserved benefits for veterans, and acting as a champion of small businesses owners.
You might know Al Franken as an award-winning comedian and author. You might know him as the host of Air America Radio's "The Al Franken Show," the network's flagship program that helped put progressive talk radio on the map. But, here's what's most important for you to know: Al Franken stands by his principles and leads by his values. As the founder of Midwest Values Political Action Committee, he raised over $1.1 million for Democrats across Minnesota and around the country. Now he is putting all of his energy into being elected to the United States Senate, and representing the progressive values of all Minnesotans.

I can't wait to see which Senate challenger you choose to help us reach our 60 Senator filibuster-proof majority. But, whoever you choose, this much is true:together, we will finish what we started in 2006 and deliver a mandate for change in 2008 that Republicans can't lay a finger on.
From the beginning I've wanted GiveEmHellHarry.com to be driven by you. Now, I need you to make a choice. Which Senate challenger do you want to hear from and raise money for?
You've raised ten of thousands of dollars for candidates - close to $1,000,000 in 2006 - and directly helped Democrats take back the Senate. But today, the tables are turning - you're going to tell us who to raise money for. It's time for you to choose where we as a community direct our energy, enthusiasm, and dollars.
Click here to vote in the first round, before the July 10th deadline!
To pump up the excitement even more, we're going to have two rounds of voting - first round voting starts now, and ends on July 10th - and second round voting starts right after that. The winner of the second round will get to send two emails to the GiveEmHellHarry.com list, helping them build the resources needed to win this fall and reach our 60 Senator filibuster-proof majority. But hurry! The deadline to vote is July 10th.
Vote before the July 10th deadline!
I'm looking forward to seeing which Senate challenger you pick. But I'm especially looking forward to throwing our support behind that challenger, and getting even closer to a 60 Senator Democratic majority.
