If we continue to see the courts undoing the repub gerrymandered districts, we can have a chance to win more seats.

Maybe I'm just hoping that there is no overlap.

....why do people continue to harp about it??

And DWS is not a part of DCCC leadership

Where were they with support in earlier special elections? They didn't get involved in either the Georgia primary or the Montana Special Election until independent voter grassroots support embarrassed them into it by raising obscene amounts of campaign funding for Dem candidates on their own.

In addition, we were sent a nag request for contributions disguised as a member survey in the mail by the DCCC that listed the usual vague catchall list of priorities--women's rights, immigration reform, and all the yada, yada we've heard before, without any clear course of action...same old, same old that shows nothing has changed.

But in my view, as long as the Dems are the minority party, they have no power. So their number 1 priority should have been a list of strategies to get Dems elected, both in special elections and in 2018. At the top of that list should be restoring election integrity with bi-partisan election officials selected equally from both parties, mandate that ALL voting machines have paper backups, replace all proprietary software with open source, require 2 bonded techs be required when accessing voting tallies, and mandatory recounts in all close elections with witnesses from both parties, mandate number of voting machines relative to registered voter population per precinct equally, and more. We'd have a fighting chance if half those things were implemented!

Also atop the list should have been strategies to ban politically motivated gerrymandering and implement voting for all over 18. And all ballots MUST be counted. Resolve so-called rare issues of "voter fraud" after the ballots are certified. Make ELECTION fraud by election officials and poll workers a felony with mandatory prison if convicted.

After all that is done, THEN Congress can address all those issues near and dear to their hearts, or more likely, their pockets.
