"Raaaaaaaaaahm!" Research 2000 for Daily Kos (9/30-10/1, likely voters): Dan Seals (D) : 38 Mark "Tiberius" Kirk (R-inc) : 44 Undecided : 16 (MoE: ?5%) The major flaw of this poll was that it was conducted during Rosh Hashanah, meaning that some Democratic-leaning voters could have been shut out of the poll in a distict with a significant Jewish population. Still, though, the numbers are in-line with...
One of the things I like best about our Orange to Blue list of candidates is the number of them that are '06 alumni. It's not because they didn't win the first time around, but because this core group of candidates from the last battle--Eric Massa, Dan Seals, Darcy Burner, Gary Trauner, and Charlie Brown--has such a commitment to bringing progressive change to Congress that woke up on Wednesday, November...
As a young black candidate with little political experience, Dan Seals can't avoid the comparisons to the man heading his party's ticket: Barack Obama.
Just since yesterday morning, you've put the following candidates over $20,000 raised via Orange to Blue: Gary Trauner (WY-AL) Eric Massa (NY-29) Dan Seals (IL-10) Jim Himes (CT-04) Bob Lord (AZ-03) Joe Garcia (FL-25) You raised $100,000 for Orange to Blue candidates yesterday on a "lazy Sunday". Now, you've set the bar at $300,000 raised total by the end of Tuesday. We're also aiming to raise $20,000...

We're trying to get these guys up to $20,000 by the end of the quarter Tuesday, as well as breaking the $200,000 mark . Eric Massa (NY-29) Done! Jim Himes (CT-04): $18,714 Dan Seals (IL-10): $18,470 Joe Garcia (FL-25): $18,127 Bob Lord (AZ-03): $18,222 Annette Taddeo (FL-18): $16,483 Dan Maffei (NY-25): $15,274 Dennis Schulman (NJ-05): $8,166 Judy Baker (MO-09): $6,079 No more procrastinating. No...
Global Strategy Group for the DCCC (8/17-19, likely voters): Dan Seals (D) : 39 Mark Kirk (R-inc) : 46 Undecided : 14 (MoE: ?4.9%) Kirk's latest internal shows him with a monster 22-point lead over Seals, and while these are older numbers, I'm more inclined to buy this picture than Kirk's lopsided polls which have Democrats and Republicans at near-parity in the 10th. In the Presidential race, GSG...
I approve of this message: Mark Kirk attacks me for backing the Obama agenda. Well, you bet I do! Does anyone doubt that Obama will carry this district by a wide margin? An excellent ad by Dan Seals.
Dan's Waukegan office was burglarized. Seals' campaign manager Pat Mogge said, First they tried to break down the back door, then they hurled something through the front and they robbed us. Police are currently looking for suspects. I am just happy that no one was hurt. For those who have never been to the office, this is where we welcome voters, launch canvassing drives, host phone banks, and hold...
Dan Seals' gaffe-prone campaign takes another hit. Another Seals' backer has slipped up, making this kind of abuse seem routine . Tribune : But when Duckworth drove up to the event for Democrat Dan Seals in a state-owned white Dodge van, she violated another law banning the use of state property or resources for political purposes. By the time the event was over, the van had been moved out of sight...
Congressman Mark Kirk's Democratic challenger Dan Seals just can't seem to catch a break this election cycle. Yesterday his star endorser and rally keynoter Illinois Veterans' Administration director Tammy Duckworth inadvertently stole away a Tribune reporter's attention by driving up...
IL-10 (McLaughlin & Associates for Mark Kirk, 9/10-11, likely voters, 6/9 in parens): Dan Seals (D) : 29 (32) Mark Kirk (R-inc) : 51 (53) Undecided : 21 (15) (MoE: ?5.7%) On its face, those are some un-sexy numbers for Dan Seals. However, the partisan breakdown of the poll is 35D-33R-29I. Labels and Lists pegs the district as 34D-21R-44I, and other internal Democratic numbers I've seen show Dems with...
With full knowledge that his own Republican values are increasingly out of step with his Democratic-leaning district, Representative Mark Kirk has taken to smears against his Democratic opponent, Orange to Blue candidate Dan Seals . In July, a Kirk campaign memo flat-out lied about Seals' employment record, calling him "unemployed" despite Seals' very impressive educational and professional background...
