THE MIDTERM
ELECTION 2006
89 Percent of Endorsed Candidates Win!
On Tuesday, November 7, the American public spoke out loud and clear that they
want their elected officials to work on global solutions to global problems. Of
the 176 candidates that were endorsed by Citizens for Global Solutions, 157 –
89.2 percent --were elected and of the 36 challengers we endorsed, 20 were
elected (three challenger races are still undecided). The result of the
election should see a huge step forward toward building a globalist majority in
Congress, one that believes in working with our friends and allies; engaging
with international organizations like the United Nations and the World Health
Organization; fighting to apply the rule of law and justice in places like the
Democratic Republic of Congo and the Darfur region of Sudan; tackling climate
change head on; and stopping not only the proliferation of nuclear weapons but
their very development.
