Many people are hoping the 2026 election will be just like 2018 when Democrats won a landslide victory in the “Blue Wave” and took back the House.
But there are two issues:
Right now, Democrats only hold a 1-2% advantage in polling versus 6% in 2017.
The House map is very different now. In 2018, there were 25 Republicans in Clinton-won districts. Today there are only 3 Republicans in Harris-won seats.
Democrats can’t just assume that because Trump is back in the White House that voters will flock en masse to vote for us. We actually have to stand for something and win their support.
This is going to be a district-by-district fight playing out on red turf where Donald Trump and Republicans won last year. We need to pick candidates accordingly!
Blue Dogs are normal people in Congress who want to get sh*t done. We believe in freedom and we’re fighting to protect yours. We’re pro-America, pro-democracy, and working to pass fiscally responsible policies that benefit everyday, hard-working Americans.
