Q3 FUNDRAISING THREAD: As always, going to try to compile as many House candidates hauls as possible. Campaigns, my DMs are open or email jdowns@nationaljournal.com to share totals!
Per New Dem Spox, Rep. Schneider has been elected as the next chair of the New Democrat Coalition for the 119th Congress, 59-48 He was running against Rep. Sharice Davids
Great read on one of the more surprising results down the ballot this year
Perhaps no result in New Jersey this year was as shocking as Donald Trump carrying the 9th congressional district – until very recently a deep-blue seat – 49% to 48%. The district’s new Dem congresswoman, @NelliePou, has a tough job ahead of her. newjerseyglobe.com/congress/nelli…

Fought through a lot to get to this start line today. Surreal is an understatement. See you in 20 days, Richmond.
with all due respect burn it to the GROUND
NEW: @jamesd0wns and I roundup some of the things that Republicans have said about former Rep. Matt Gaetz, Donald Trump's pick for attorney general. Newsflash: It isn't all so nice. nationaljournal.com/s/726807/first…
Race not yet called by AP, but Miller-Meeks leads by about 800 votes
New: @millermeeks challenger will request a recount in their razor-thin race, per statement from Christina Bohannan campaign.
Just two of these members, so central to GOP leadership’s headaches, will return to Congress next term
This might make more sense now
Holy crap can the news stop newsing🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Dimmock lost to Gaetz by roughly 45 points in this year's primary
I wrote in January about @RepMattGaetz's rise through his podcast, allowing him to gain clout among and fire up his conservative base. Feels like it's reached its zenith now. Free! nationaljournal.com/s/723927/the-s…
Folks will recall Van Orden called Gaetz "tubby" on the House floor when Gaetz entertained an ouster against Speaker Mike Johnson
VERY interestingly, Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-Wis.), who has been one of Gaetz's biggest critics in Congress, has no strong reaction to Trump nominating him for AG. "I support the president," Van Orden tells me. This shows the strength of Trump's grasp on House Republicans.
With Thune officially becoming the majority leader, Sen. Ted Cruz is cleared to become the Senate Commerce Committee Chair. nationaljournal.com/s/726774/with-…
Important to remember that county party chairs will select the nominee to replace Stefanik in a special election. No primary
NEW: Rep. Marc Molinaro tells me and @cami_mondeaux that “there are people who have reached out” about him running in outgoing Rep. Elise Stefanik’s district. “I’m certainly very flattered. I want to continue to be a voice for upstate New York” – but didn’t give a firm yes.
Johnson at presser says he expects the GOP majority to be larger than this Congress
NRCC Chairman Richard Hudson says Speaker Mike Johnson has "earned the gavel" due to his efforts in securing a GOP House majority
