Democrats urge donors to give more to replicate 2022's successful legislative election record in 2024

Democrats defended every state legislative chamber in their control in 2022, the first midterm elections since 1934 in which the party in control did not lose a chamber. To replicate that record next year, they say they'll need more money.
A memo from the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) sent to donors asks for an additional $10 million for 2024, as well as for Virginia's legislative elections this fall and any special elections that may emerge in New Hampshire, where Democrats are just three seats away from flipping the state House.
The memo pitches it to donors as an early investment to "protect the path to the presidency" through building the party's grassroots presence in presidential battleground states like Arizona, Michigan and Pennsylvania.
