Democrats’ California nightmare
October 27, 2022
In April, Politico’s California Playbook reported that the Golden State was a “silver lining” for D.C. Democrats, and “if there’s one place the party can still look to for a glimmer of hope, it’s deep blue California.”
Fast forward six months, and D.C. Democrats are facing a California nightmare.
- Politico reports Julia Brownley’s polling shows she’s only winning by ONE POINT in her Biden +20 (!!!) seat.
- The New York Times reports that Katie Porter, facing the prospect of losing, is suddenly unloading her war chest.
- House Majority PAC has pulled millions from CA-27 (a Biden +12) and CA-45 (a Biden +6).
- The DCCC and House Majority PAC currently have NOTHING running on LA broadcast.
NRCC COMMENT: “Democrats are struggling to remain competitive in deep blue California because their policies caused the price of everything to increase, and voters are feeling the financial pain.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Torunn Sinclair
