Eight JStreetPAC Endorsed Candidates pose for a picture.

JStreetPAC scored some exciting victories on Election Day, with 32 winning candidates, two races still too close to call and one race in a run-off.

Eight of our candidates will join Congress in January: Jeff Merkley will represent Oregon in the U.S. Senate, and Gary Peters (MI), Eric Massa (NY), Debbie Halvorson (IL), Dan Maffei (NY), Jared Polis (CO), Chellie Pingree (ME) and Tom Perriello (VA) will join the U.S. House of Representatives. They join 24 incumbent Members who we supported and who won re-election. Together they will provide a strong voice in Congress advocating for peace and diplomacy in the Middle East.

Three races remain to be called: Mary Jo Kilroy (OH), Ethan Berkowitz (AK), and Senate candidate Jim Martin (GA). Martin faces a runoff election on December 2.
