“But with President Donald Trump’s popularity plummeting, sharp swings toward Democrats in special elections around the country and Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherrill’s landslide 2025 election — along with an unpopular new artificial intelligence data center in the heart of Van Drew’s district — that may be starting to change.”
