After 48,000 calls to voters for Sen. Russ Feingold last night, we broke the record again tonight: over 53,000 for Rep. Alan Grayson!! Amazing!

Also tonight, we added 2 emergency call shifts for Alexi Giannoulias, the progressive running for President Obama’s open Senate seat in Illinois. The last 3 polls show Alexi neck-and-neck with former Republican Congressman Mark Kirk.

Let’s win this seat for progressives! Can you join folks across the nation making calls for Alexi this Wed or Sat? Click here to sign up.

Alexi supports a public option, proudly writing on our PCCC questionnaire that it’s the “best way to increase competition in the health insurance market.”

He also supports breaking up the big banks, protecting Net Neutrality, and taking on corporate influence, telling us:

“Every Democrat running for office says they want to change the Washington game. But few have gone beyond words and embraced action. I so fiercely believe in getting corporate influence out of politics that in my own campaign, in the midst of a recession when donations are down, I chose to reject contributions from corporate PACs and federal lobbyists. I won’t take their money, and I won’t vote their way.”

Don’t you want this guy in the Senate? Let’s do it!
