Slow Boring 2025 Fall Recommendations

This list is an early slate of recommendations for the 2026 cycle. We’ll release additional slates closer to the election — in a little less than a year from now.


We are prioritizing candidates who face primaries, mostly in competitive races but also safe seats or states. In a continuation of our work from 2024, we are also focusing on the North Carolina Supreme Court.


With these contributions, we can show that there is a real national network of donors ready to back common-sense candidates who can win tough races and make the national brand of the Democratic Party more appealing. If we want to take Senate majorities, flip red-state governorships, and make blue states work better, we need to prove there’s a lane for ambitious, pragmatic Democrats. This slate is part of that mission.
