A TPM Reader has an idea …
Call your Democratic rep, senator, who have tons of money with no race. Ask them if they are planning to donate it to the DSCC or DCCC. If not, why not. Print their answers, phone numbers, emails, etc
This sounds like a good idea. 
Give ’em a ring. Most Democratic incumbents aren’t facing a tough fight this year. Some are barely in a race at all. How much should they fork over? A third? I’m sure.
Why don’t you ask? Give them a call and ask. There are well over two hundred Democratic incumbents in Congress. And it’s not like they can take a lot of time to think about it. We’re under three weeks till the big day. Time is running out.
Get in touch with your senator or rep and ask them. Let us know what you hear and we’ll share it with our readers.
(ed.note: Where to call? The proper place to call is the campaign office of your officeholder, not their congressional office. The staff at the congressional office won’t be able to give answers about campaign money. It’s against the law. The phone number and site of each campaign should be easy to find through Google. But if you can’t find it, I think the congressional office is allowed to give you the number of the campaign.)
