OpenLeft
In July 2007, Lux co-founded OpenLeft.com with bloggers Matt Stoller and Chris Bowers. OpenLeft is a news, analysis and action website dedicated toward building a progressive governing majority in America. It was also founded with intent to bridge conversational gaps between party insiders and grassroots activists, as exhibited by its Right to Respond option. Since its launch, OpenLeft is considered to be one of the most popular and influential progressive blogs in the country. It has also seen rapid growth in viewership, and currently averages well over 100,000 unique visitors per week. National publications such as The Nation have taken notice of OpenLeft, saying that the site allows for "substantive debate that would otherwise not occur". Other notable projects have stemmed from OpenLeft, such as the Bush Dog campaign, the Searching for John McCain campaign, and Chris Bowers' election forecasting discussions.
