Despite Republicans' new strategy, Democrats are looking for 'extreme candidates' to come out of Senate GOP primaries and give them a leg up in an otherwise bleak electoral map.
Most Democrats stay quiet about GOP primaries for one big reason: They’re wary of giving their rivals any general election edge by hinting at who they’d rather face.Though the state’s 2022 Senate race was one of the closest in the country, Democrats are near-giddy that former President Donald Trump backer Jim Marchant is taking on Sen..
Keeping the Senate blue will be a brutally difficult endeavor that requires losing no more than one seat in more than a half dozen red- and purple-state races. If Democrats can run against ultra-conservative or Trump-aligned candidates in those races, though, they believe they have a much better chance.
Democrats don’t think Washington Republicans can climb out of their nationwide electability quagmire with candidates like Marchant. In fact, they’re counting on the opposite. “Primaries generally exacerbate their problems, and it makes candidates out of touch and puts them further out of the mainstream,” Poersch said of Republicans. “It’s a mean process for them.”
