| Description | Senior Republicans concede they’re at risk of losing dozens of state-level elections that will determine who wields power over the post-2020 congressional map — and potentially which party controls the chamber for the following 10 years. While Republicans are establishing a massive national infrastructure devoted to reelecting President Donald Trump and winning congressional majorities, party officials say the state legislative races are being overlooked.
“If Republicans don't start investing in state legislative races and the litigation and data needed to secure our majorities to the same extent the Democrats are, the GOP will see our legislative majorities erased and it will take decades to rebuild them,” said Adam Kincaid, executive director of the National Republican Redistricting Trust, the party’s data and legal clearinghouse for the next round of line-drawing. |
