DCCC Exhales...
ShareIn OH-06, with 20 percent in, it looks indeed as if enough Democrats wrote in state sen. Charlie Wilson's name on their electronic primary ballots.
Yes -- the DCCC may have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars it had not originally budgeted for the task -- but at least it looks like they've got their nominee.
The AFL-CIO also spent big bucks to help out Wilson.
An AFL-CIO official sent along these stats:
Ohio AFL-CIO volunteers working in CD 6: 300
Union members in CD 6: 48,100
Local unions: 586
Calls made to union members: 120,000
Union locals that sent personal letters to their membership: 201
Worksite leaflets distributed: 35,000
Percentage of union members in CD 6 contacted by their local: 75 [MARC AMBINDER]
