ALAMO, Calif. (KCBS) - Next week, voters in the East Bay will choose a new member of Congress. And, the race to replace Democrat Ellen Tauscher may be closer than first thought.
Cover Story on the candidates: KCBS' Doug Sovern reports
Republican David Harmer has been hammering Lt. Governor John Garamendi in online ads, warning that the veteran Democrat will vote to raise taxes if he gets to Washington...This isn't some sort of prelude to something else. We are absolutely serious about taking this seat and I think we will."
Harmer's internal polling shows him within upset distance in a district with an 18% Democratic registration advantage...

*Ping when you get to it :).
I am contacting the NRCC to ask why they are supporting Scozzafava in the race in upstate New York, and why they are ignoring David Harmer in this California’s 10th district. Here are the numbers if anyone else wants to call:

Also, perhaps those of us who donated to the RNC or RCCC should ask for our money back so we can support the conservative candidates of our choice.
| From the desk of cc2k: |
Candidates I support: Doug Hoffman for Congress, NY 23rd (PayPal), David Harmer for Congress, CA 10th (website for info). Please, spread the word about these important special elections on November 3, 209: New York’s 23rd congressional district and California’s 10th congressional district. |
Where is the RNC in this race? Are they AWOL? The world wants to know.
He also has a web site with information about his position on the issues, and contact forms and a volunteer signup form. Go to http://www.harmerforcongress.com/default.htm for his website.

Yes. I see you beat me to it. People should demand that the NRCC support the Republican in THIS race and cut their losses on that idiot Scozzafaza, who makes a fool of herself every time she opens her mouth.
Send the money to California!
It would be terrific if Harmer took Garamendi. That slob has been playing on his name for 30 years. It would be nice to get rid of him so he can go back to the Delta and pull pears.
bump!
"Two other dudes who were added later (but before this round) also stay put: David Harmer (CA-10) and Greg Ball (NY-19). I have to believe this means the GOP is writing off any hope of a stunning Harmer upset in next week's special election."
