It’s a $250,000 ad buy on Atlanta cable, according to a Club source, and scheduled to run…
It could be a rough round of midterm elections for Republicans next year but DFL Rep. Tim Walz gave them a little gift by vacating Minnesota’s 1st District in order to run for governor.
The six-term congressman won re-election narrowly, 50.3-49.6 percent, last year in a race that…
I was initially skeptical of a recent poll in the special election for Georgia’s 6th District, not because it utilized Interactive Voice Response, or IVR, technology or because it was conducted by a GOP-friendly firm or because a Democratic candidate was leading in a Republican-leaning district.
