Before Conservative Victory Fund supports a [[candidate]] challenging an [[incumbent]] or running for an open seat, they research the race including the candidates who are running. They then send out a questionnaire that must be answered and signed by the candidate before support is considered.

During its 40 year history Conservative Victory Fund has always looked to open seats to make sure conservatives fill them whenever possible. 2008 was no different. CVF helped conservative stalwart [[Tom McClintock]] win an open seat in [[California]] though millions were spent on behalf of his opponent. Also in California, CVF helped [[Duncan D. Hunter]] win election (he had recently returned from active duty service in our nation's armed forces). In Colorado, [[Mike Coffman]] won a hard fought contest for [[Tom Tancredo]]'s seat. In [[Florida]], CVF was active helping [[Bill Posey]] win an open seat and [[Tom Rooney]] defeat Democrat incumbent [[Tim Mahoney]]. CVF's efforts in [[Illinois]] helped conservative [[Aaron Schock]] win and become the youngest member elected to Congress. And in [[Utah]], after conservatives showed their lack of faith in incumbent [[Chris Cannon]], [[Jason Chaffetz]] won his seat. And in a special election in [[Louisiana]] CVF helped [[John Fleming]] win his open seat race.
