It's time for another check-in on where we are at in 2014 with regards to Democratic challengers to GOP Congressmen/Congresswomen!
NOTE: I would publish this diary later on this month but seeing as the government shutdown has started firing up everyone on Daily Kos and the Democratic base across the board in the U.S., I thought I'd publish the monthly progress report sooner so you can get involved in any campaign of your chosing.
Upon further research, there has been additional activity and new Democratic challengers that have emerged since last month's report.
First, this isn't a new update but the most immediate races to pay attention to are special elections in the following districts:
Alabama's 1st Congressional District - Burton LeFlore is the Democratic nominee and will face either Bradley Byrne or Dean Young as the GOP nominee after November 5th and general election is on December 17th.
Louisiana's 5th Congressional District - Several Democratic candidates are running in upcoming primary to replace retiring Rep. Rodney Alexander who has resigned to take a position in Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal's administration as Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Veterans Affairs. Special Election takes place on October 19, 2013.
In addition, new Democratic challengers have emerged:
In California, for CA-21, Amanda Renteria is challenging Rep. David Valadao, three Democratic candidates are running in the CA-25 primary to challenge Rep. Buck McKeon and three Democratic candidates are running in the CA-42 primary to challenge Rep. Ken Calvert.
In Georgia, Ken Dious is running in GA-10 to replace Rep. Paul Broun.
In Indiana, IN-04 and IN-09 have Democratic challengers.
In MN-08, 77-year old Barbara Stocker (retired research scientist) is challenging Rep. Jason Smith.
In Montana's At-Large Congressional District, John Lewis is running although no website as of yet is listed.
In New Jersey, Rep. Scott Garrett has a Democratic challenger, Roy Cho, in NJ-05.
In Texas, there are now six Democratic candidates running against GOP incumbents, including Neal Marchbanks who is running against the infamous Rep. Randy Neugebauer.
However, there are still 131 GOP-held districts that do not have Democratic challengers as of today. Two months ago there were 157. If you have any insight on additional Democratic candidates running in GOP-held Congressional Districts that have not been cited here, keep us informed.
Which Congressional Districts already have Democratic challengers?
Which ones have Democrats who are considering challenging?
Which ones really don't have any Democratic challengers?
Here's what we have:

Feel free to point out any candidates we're missing from the list.
Aside from that, we are keeping a close eye out for all Democratic candidates, even the ones not normally covered on Daily Kos and not officially endorsed by Democracy for America.
Go ahead and pass out the websites and donation pages of each listed candidate/candidates to everyone you know so we can start giving the GOP hell.
As for the states that currently don't have Democratic challengers to GOP incumbents or in open races in red districts, here are the e-mails and phone numbers to the state Democratic parties in question where Democratic candidates are not present. They need to mount Democratic candidates in the unchallenged districts:
