Republicans are feeling so good about their Election Day results, they’ve added a dozen more Democrats to their hit list for defeat in the 2022 midterm congressional elections including Colorado’s Ed Perlmutter.
From the National Review:
The House GOP campaign arm is now targeting an additional 13 Democratic House seats ahead of the 2022 midterms after Republicans had a number of surprising successes on Election Day, including a win for Republican Glenn Youngkin in the Virginia gubernatorial election.
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) now has its sights set on the seats of Representatives Greg Stanton of Arizona, Ed Perlmutter of Colorado, Joe Courtney of Connecticut, Darren Soto of Florida, Sanford Bishop of Georgia, Frank Mrvan of Indiana, David Trone of Maryland, G. K. Butterfield of North Carolina, Annie Kuster of New Hampshire, Teresa Leger Fernandez of New Mexico, Madeleine Dean of Pennsylvania, Jim Cooper of Tennessee, and Jennifer Wexton of Virginia.
The new additions bring the total to 70 House Democrats who will be targeted ahead of the 2022 midterms.
Who the Hell is Ed Perlmutter, you ask?
A congressman of little consequence for 14 years, Perlmutter has accomplished nothing we can recall during his time in office representing the 7th congressional district.
He’s ripe for the political pickings, and redistricting didn’t do him any favors.
Perlmutter’s take-away from the Election Day shellacking is to get even more obnoxious about this never-ending pandemic, mandates and mixed messages.
