It’s the only way we’re going to retake the House in 2020. It’s so refreshing to see that the RNC is getting off its duff to do what’s needed.
(House Minority Leader Kevin ) McCarthy (R-Calif) says he's met with over 30 contenders, of whom nearly 6 in 10 are women and nearly half are minorities. Rep. Susan Brooks, R-Ind., recruitment chief for the National Republican Congressional Committee, the House GOP's campaign arm, says more than 130 women have contacted the committee about running. Another group called Winning for Women and E-PAC, formed by Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., are also seeking female GOP candidates.
So far, Republicans haven't matched Democrats' ability to attract women candidates. According to data collected by The Associated Press through noon last Monday, just 38 of 172 declared Republican House challengers were women, around 1 in 5. That compared to 84 of 222 declared House Democratic challengers, nearly 2 in 5.
Democrats scoff that GOP efforts will flop because Americans care less about candidates' attributes than about issues like buttressing health care and wages.
What do you think? Can GOP candidates win my running on the economy and defending our borders? Or will the Dimocrap giveaway promises win?
