WASHINGTON, Nov. 5 /Christian Newswire/ -- Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund President Marjorie Dannenfelser commented on the results of the race for Minnesota's 6th Congressional District:

"Congresswoman Michele Bachmann's return to Congress is a great victory for Minnesotans and our nation.  Never one to back down from a fight, Michele Bachmann is a great defender of women and unborn children.  Her leadership is a bright light in the House Pro-Life Women's Caucus, and we look forward to working with her again in the next session of Congress."

The Susan B. Anthony List Voter Education and Mobilization Program contacted over 300,000 pro-life voters in Minnesota through radio, mail and phone-banking.  The Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund endorsed Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, and the organization’s nationwide membership contributed over $40,000 in bundled contributions to her campaign.

Since its founding, the nonpartisan Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund has helped elect 75 pro-life candidates to the House, seven to the Senate, and seven to other statewide offices across the country.

The Susan B. Anthony List is a nationwide network of Americans, over 150,000 residing in all 50 states, dedicated to mobilizing, advancing, and representing pro-life women in politics.  Its connected Candidate Fund increases the percentage of pro-life women in the political process.
