EMILY's List mum on Mary Landrieu

While Republicans amp up their ground game in the Louisiana Senate race, one top Democratic group is notably absent: EMILY’s List, a national organization that supports pro-choice Democratic women.

Incumbent Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu is an interesting lacuna in the organization’s roster of endorsees. EMILY’s List’s stated mission is to elect pro-choice Democratic women candidates (“Emily” stands for “Early Money Is Like Yeast”), and its fundraising emails have consistently emphasized the importance of holding the Senate. But in its latest email blasts, Landrieu’s name is nowhere to be seen.
