Vulnerable

HERE are the 57 Most Vulnerable Democrat Seats

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) released a list of 47 “vulnerable” Democrat-held Congressional seats in February, a few hours ago: ten more names were added to it bringing the total to 57 seats that the GOP is targeting to flip in 2022. Look for your district!

Let’s Define “Vulnerable”

According to Newsmax,

“The initial 47 were broken into three groups. In the first group, there are 29 Democrats who hold districts where there were tight races at the congressional and presidential races in the last cycle, including Democrats from once-GOP-held suburban areas, lawmakers in more GOP-friendly regions, and members in heavily Latino districts near the border with Mexico”

This group of the initial 47 Democrats is the “Tier I” list..

The Tier II on the list includes eight Democrats who are “less vulnerable but who still won by fewer than 10 points” or if they underperformed the Biden-Harris regime in their district.

Finally, the Tier III list, the most recent ten names, represent seats that could be impacted by redistricting which has dealt a devastating blow to Democrat strongholds by removing a seat from New York, California, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia and adding a seat to Florida, North Carolina, Colorado, Montana and Oregon. Texas will add two seats.

According to Reuters, “The gains for states such as Texas, North Carolina and Florida, where Republicans control the legislatures, could be enough to erase Democrats’ current narrow majority in the House.”

Republicans in the House of Representatives only need to recover five of these seats to regain control of the chamber and deprive Speaker Nancy Pelosi of her gavel.
