State Democratic group unveils targeted races
he Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) in a memo obtained by The Hill on Monday detailed its top races 50 days out from Election Day.
In the memo, the DLCC warned that Republicans could take control of four state legislatures if the GOP is able to flip eight state legislative seats across the country.
“Our Spotlight candidates are running in razor-tight districts to make or break majorities; districts that will decide the fate of abortion access in their state; and districts featuring MAGA extremists intent on upending democracy,” DLCC President Heather Williams wrote in the memo. “In other districts, our Spotlight candidates are young leaders stepping up to run for office for the first time. Our candidates are closely connected with their communities, and they’re real changemakers.”
The DLCC is targeting races in a number of races in presidential battleground states, zeroing in on issues like reproductive health care and defending democracy. The group also noted 20 percent of its spotlight candidates are younger than 40 years.
