With Duffy out, I have decided to endorse Baldwin for reelection.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

With Huntsman out, I have switched my Utah endorsement.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Nobody listed so far will run. I will eat crow if I am wrong.

Are you including the incumbents in this?

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Endorsements released for Alabama and Vermont. (Listed in OP)

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

I have now made at least a tentative endorsement in all races except Alabama and New York.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Following the skinny repeal vote, I have endorsed the presumptive democratic opponent to Sen. Dean Heller.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

October Update:

Texas - Joaquin Castro (D) isn't running, so switched my endorsement to Beto O'Rourke (D)
Utah - Ben McAdams (D) isn't running for this office, so switched my endorsement to Evan McMullin (I/R)
Tennessee - With Bob Corker (R) retiring, my endorsement goes to Phil Bredesen (D)
New York - I was undecided here previously, I have now decided to endorse David Webber (R)

So far, my senate endorsements include 12 Republicans, 2 Independents (King and McMullin), and 20 Democrats, with my Arizona endorsement currently up in the air.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

UT: Evan McMullin (I/R) -> Mitt Romney (R)
CA: Ashley Swearingin (R) -> Dianne Feinstein (D)

Full list in OP

OP updated. Changes:

NM: Susana Martinez (R) --> Martin Heinrich (D)
AZ: Undecided ---> Kyrsten Sinema (D)
MS-Special: Not Listed ---> Jim Hood (D)
NJ: Thomas Kean, Jr. (R) ---> Bob Hugin (R)
VA: Barbara Comstock (R) ---> Tim Kaine (D)

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Update:

CT: Tony Hwang (R) ---> Joe Visconti (R)
MI: Justin Amash (R) ---> John James (R)
MN-S: Undecided ---> Tina Smith (D)
MS-S: Jim Hood (D) ---> Mike Espy (D)

I have now endorsed a declared candidate in every race, except for VT where the Republican field remains unclear. Of course, the endorsement will have to change if my preferred candidate loses the primary, assaults someone, etc.

In total, I have endorsed 24 Democrats (69%), 10 Republicans (29%), and 1 Independent (3%) for these elections.

I’m probably gonna regret bothering to ask this, but why did you choose to snub Stabenow and only Stabenow out of the 10 Trump Democratic Senators?

My least favorite Trump State Senator is basically a tie between her and Baldwin, but the alternative to Baldwin is Nicholson...so yeah, no. John James is at least generic R, and probably a bit better.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Update:

VT: Scott Milne (R) ---> Jasdeep Pannu (R)

I have now endorsed a declared candidate in every race.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

CT: Joe Visconti (R) ---> Chris Murphy (D)
NY: Dave Webber (R) ---> Chele Farley (R)
VT: Jasdeep Pannu (R) ---> Brooke Paige (R)

lol.

What do you have against Gillibrand tho?

Way too liberal. I know I'm giving a lot more leeway to Democrats than I normally would with my Senate Endorsements because Trump, but the line has to be drawn somewhere, and I just can't justify telling people to support a very extreme liberal like Gillibrand.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

This is the thread for endorsements. Take your partial prediction elsewhere.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

MA: John Kingston (R) ---> Geoff Diehl (R)
VT: Brooke Paige (R) ----> Lawrence Zupan (R)

Full list in OP. I currently expect this to be the final update.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

I am rescinding my endorsement of Senator Mazie Hirono and endorsing Republican Challenger Ron Curtis.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

I am rescinding my endorsement of Senator Mazie Hirono and endorsing Republican Challenger Ron Curtis.

Why are you rescinding your endorsement of Hirono? Because of the foolish comments she has made relating to Kavanaugh's allegations?

Saying on National TV that people lose their right to due process based on their judicial philosophy is a lot more than an innocent 'foolish statement'. Enough said.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

Why are you endorsing the Republicans in Michigan, New York, Vermont, and Massachusetts?

Stabenow is my least favorite of the 10 trump-state democrats, and the incumbents in NY/VT/MA are simply way too socialist.

How did you get your endorsements map uploaded? I've been trying to do the same.

There should be a link to get started here: https://uselectionatlas.org/ENDORSE/SENATE/2018/endorse.php

I've completed my endorsement map using the Atlas Endorse tool. I'm just trying to figure out how to upload the map as an image directly on to this board. I would think there would be a way to do it, just like how you can copy and paste the URL for maps created by the Electoral College Generator.

Right Click on your map and select copy image address. Then do

Here are my Senate endorsements. I am surprised that they are so skewed towards Democrats:

One easy way to unskew a bit: Endorse Mitt Romney in Utah
