Two August 15th special congressional elections are now in the process.
I am requesting prayer from like-minded Christians. I am praying that the Lord will install Christian/conservative-mined candidates. Candidates that will fear God, benefit the Church, and contribute to the healing of the US.
Amen!
(Please do not post disagreement with my prayer request. There is another appropriate forum for such political discussion.)
General Info:
Special elections to the 115th United States Congress (2017-2018) - Ballotpedia
US Senate race:
United States Senate special election in Alabama, 2017 - Ballotpedia
Nine Republicans and seven Democrats are competing in the primary on August 15, 2017. A runoff election is scheduled on September 26, 2017, in case either party's primary concludes without a candidate receiving more than 50 percent of the vote.[5] Since Alabama has been continuously represented by a Republican since 1994, media coverage and spending in the race has focused on the Republican primary. The top three contenders, according to an internal campaign poll in July, are incumbent Sen. Luther Strange (R-Ala), Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.), and Judge Roy Moore.
Utah's 3rd Congressional District Race (US House Seat):
Utah's 3rd Congressional District special election, 2017 - Ballotpedia
Primary Date : August 15, 2017
General Election Date : November 7, 2017
A special election is being held in the 3rd Congressional District of Utah for the U.S. House of Representatives. The election will replace Jason Chaffetz (R), who resigned from office on June 30, 2017.[1]
A total of 22 candidates, including 13 Republicans and three Democrats, declared their intent to run for Chaffetz's seat. The Democratic and Republican state party conventions were held on June 17, 2017. Kathie Allen won the Democratic Party's nomination. Christopher Herrod, a former state representative, was selected as the convention nominee for the Republican Party. He will compete against John Curtis and Tanner Ainge—two candidates who qualified for the ballot via signature-gathering—in the Republican primary on August 15.
Libertarian Joe Buchman, Independent American candidate Jason Christensen, independent Sean Whalen, and United Utah Party candidate Jim Bennett are set to appear on the general election ballot on November 7, 2017, with Allen and the winner of the Republican primary
