Democrats’ Momentum Continues to Sweep the Country
Democrats are just getting started as we head into the midterms.
This month, voters turned out to elect Democratic candidates who are focused on lowering costs, protecting health care, and building a more affordable America for working families.
In Texas’ primary elections, Democratic enthusiasm reached heights not seen in decades as voters turned out in droves to support Democrats. For the first time in over 20 years, Democrats outperformed Republicans during early voting and trampled their voter turnout on Election Day. In stark contrast, Texas Republicans are now stuck battling each other in costly runoff elections.
Meanwhile, a Blue Wave swept across North Carolina as voters surged to the polls to vote for strong Democratic candidates. After a massive turnout in the primary, Democratic early voting turnout was nearly 50% higher than Republican turnout, underscoring just how much voters have soured on Donald Trump and his Republican allies.
Democrats also pulled off a major upset in Arkansas. Democrat Alex Holladay clinched victory in the House District 70 election by nearly 15 points, flipping a seat Democrats have not held in decades. Democrats have flipped 28 state legislative seats since Trump took office — while Republicans remain at zero.
And in Florida, while Republicans are self-destructing after shocking racist messages surfaced in yet another Republican group chat, the Boca Raton mayoral race is headed for a recount after Mike Liebelson and Andy Thomson, a Democratic lawyer, finished just six votes apart.
The bottom line: In red, blue, and purple districts alike, Democrats are overperforming and winning back-to-back as we build Democratic power across all levels of government to ensure everyday Americans have strong leaders fighting for them.
