DCCC CHAIRMAN STEVE ISRAEL ANNOUNCES FIRST ROUND OF RED TO BLUE RACES
DCCC Chairman Steve Israel today announced the 36 races that have qualified for the first slate of the highly competitive Red to Blue program as the latest in the DCCC’s ‘Drive for 25’ campaign to win the House. This is the earliest in the cycle that the Red to Blue program has been announced. These races have earned a spot on Red to Blue by surpassing demanding fundraising, organization and infrastructure goals and with candidates that demonstrate they are problem solvers who will represent new priorities when elected to Congress.
