Retiring Republicans

This is a list of House seats that are open due to retirement, promotion or death, or else due to an incumbent losing a primary challenge. For each I am tracking the Democrats who have stepped up to take the seats, as well as links to their FEC filings and ActBlue contribution page.

This is my first diary, and I hope to keep updating it as additional candidates and information come along. If you have any suggestions or additional information, please pass them along and I'll update it.

I originally grabbed this table from a comment posted by Crisitunity on mcjoan's diary AZ-03: And then there were 29, and modified it. This page has also benefited from suggestions by wuod kwatch and AdmiralNaismith. Thanks!

Note that ActBlue's FAQ states that processing fees are 3.75% of your contribution, which is explained in more detail here. Note that I have not double-checked the contribution links, so please double-check before making a contribution.
