Excel File: US Congressional Districts by State

This afternoon I made an excel file of the US Congressional Districts by State.

I'm using it to keep track of the Republican Primary candidates, but it could be used for anything where you need a list of each congressional district

It took me a while to put it together, so if I can save anyone else some time. Please feel free to use it. If you share it elsewhere on the web, I just ask that you link back to this post.

Metta World Peace No Longer Seems Like Such a Strange Name

Going through the US House primary races today and I came across Pro-Life.

Pro-Life is a candidate running in Idaho's 1st Congressional district as an independent. Born Marvin Thomas Richardson, he legally changed his name to 'Pro-Life' because of his staunch belief that abortion is murder.

Check out the tab at the top Wife of Pro-Life. 

Kirsten, a Christian woman, on the ballot?

* Kirsten Faith Richardson (wife of Pro-Life) for Idaho State Senate, District 11 - 2010
I, Pro-Life, asked my wife to run for office. She was very reluctant. We do not believe that women should be involved in things outside the home, unless there is a serious health, life, or liberty situation.

In our legislative district we do not have enough patriot men to fill the ballot spots. Kirsten is the only politician in our district who will say that abortion is murder, unjust war is murder, perverts/adulterers should be jailed, and democratic socialism is collective theft.
Kirsten spends very little time and money campaigning. She does not neglect her calling as wife, mother, or home-school teacher. Because of Kirsten’s involvement the voter is given a choice to vote for someone who honors God and the Constitution. 

The Daily Beast goes into a little more depth on Pro-Life and his previous Idaho gubernatorial run.
