There are 36 critical races in 2014

http://action.democraticgovernors.org/page/content/realchangeisinthestates-wel/

Governors' races are where the action is in 2014.

We've seen the damage that Republican governors can do: "purging" eligible voters from the voting rolls, closing women's health clinics and passing economic policies that favor the wealthy and the well-connected.

Take a look at this infographic explaining why next year's 36 governors' races are so critical and then share it with your friends and family!

Senator Wendy Davis is running against AG Greg Abbott. This is going to be a dirty campaign. If you want to get a feel as to the nature of Greg's supporters search twitter for #abortionbarbie. I am hoping the fact that the Greg is a nasty human being will come out in this race.
