House Democrats are targeting 35 Republican-held House seats in districts that President Donald Trump won in November in their efforts to take back control of the House next year. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is focusing on Republican incumbents in battleground districts, including those where former Vice President Kamala Harris carried in the presidential election. They are also targeting seats held by Republicans eyeing higher office, potentially creating more competitive open-seat races. Some GOP incumbents are facing negative headlines, such as allegations of assault or embellishing their resume, making them vulnerable targets for Democrats. The DCCC is also defending seats that Trump carried, naming 26 members of the Frontline program for incumbents facing tough races. On the other hand, the House GOP is targeting 26 Democratic-held seats in their efforts to maintain their majority. The prospect of a midterm election environment that is not favorable to Republicans, coupled with recent gains in special elections, has Democrats feeling hopeful about their chances of taking back the House next year. However, the road ahead is challenging as they also have to defend seats in districts that Trump carried, highlighting the need for a strong campaign strategy to secure their desired wins.
