House Democrats Crushing Challengers In Fundraising

The Republican pathway for recapturing House control in next year’s election charges straight through the districts of the most vulnerable Democratic incumbents, especially freshmen. Judging from early but formidable cash advantages those lawmakers have amassed, ousting them won’t be easy,” the AP reports.

“Each of the 62 freshmen House Democrats has raised more money than their top opponent. The same is true for all 31 Democrats from districts President Trump had won in 2016 and for all 39 Democrats who snatched Republican-held seats last November.”

“In nearly all cases it’s not even close.”
