“If Democrats want to have more influence, we need to go towards the middle and represent a majority of people and not try to pull the country further to the left on some of those extreme issues.” - @tchittenden
Hear the conversation between Vermont State Senator Thomas Chittenden and PTA members @FelixFrisch6 and @spaterIIthomas about the upcoming election and what Democrats can do to take back the majority.
Tejano music legend @PulidoForTexas has the chance to flip a District Trump won by 18 points.
We spent three days in Edinburg with Bobby to find out how he’s been doing it.

Republicans gerrymandered the House map into a wall. But walls built in a wave year can backfire. GOP gerrymandering's potential backfire, in three charts 🧵 welcomestack.org/p/gop-gerry…
How rare would that be? Not very. As @NateSilver538 shows, midterms have averaged 7.4-point swings, and at least 5 points in every midterm for two decades.
Republicans have already spent $70M+ defending their newly drawn districts. We've been warning about a "dummymander" for more than a year. Forecasters give Democrats ~90%. The other 10% is a normal polling error. Play through the tape. welcomestack.org/p/gop-gerry…
In 2022, Mary Peltola won a House seat Trump won by 10 points. She did it with a WAR of D+22. But today we are seeing that the value of her candidacy is so much greater than just one House seat.
Nate Silver gives Democrats a 63% chance to flip Alaska but just a 14% chance to flip Florida, despite both states both voting for Trump by 13 points in 2024. That’s because of Mary Peltola.
We are looking to find the next generation of Peltola’s who can flip Red House districts and go on to win big on the a national stage.

Two House seats that are now rated as "Toss Up" started the cycle as "Solid Republican." That's why Democrats need to start with a broad map, early. welcomestack.org/p/these-rac…
"Moderate," "Independent" and "in the middle" aren't DC beltway terms. It's often how swing voters describe themselves, and they want to see collaboration, not more extremism from their representatives. welcomedemocracy.org/publica…

Swing Voters in Iowa, Pennsylvania and Michigan are fed up with extremism in both parties. Politicians that reject extremism and show up in their communities resonate with these voters. The latest report from Welcome Democracy Institute seeks to better understand Obama-Trump voters in these states. welcomedemocracy.org/publica…
