Republicans Turn To Female Candidates In Suburban Battleground Districts

…
Stefanik’s Elevate PAC (E-PAC) is promoting 18 Republican women in some of the most competitive House districts in the country, including five in seats labeled toss-ups by Cook Political Report. Seventeen of the eighteen candidates are running in districts targeted by the National Republican Congressional Committee for flips. Stefanik predicted that more than 50 women will serve in the House GOP conference in 2023, adding that Democrats do not have a “monopoly on women candidates or women voters.”

“We have so many Republican women, it’s hard to fit them all in one press conference,” she joked. (RELATED: ‘The Year Of The Republican Woman’: Here’s A List Of GOP Women Who Won 2020 Elections)

Stefanik differentiated the processes by which Democrats and Republicans look for diverse candidates, explaining in an interview with the Daily Caller that her efforts are focused on supporting female candidates who have the best chance to win their districts. In contrast, she said, Democrats specifically promote female and minority candidates at the expense of district fit.

“Rather than playing outdated identity politics, we look for the best candidate, the strongest candidate in these districts who happen to be Republican women, and then we get fully behind that candidate, the strongest candidate, to get them through the primary and general election, which is why I think we’ve had so much success,” she explained.

Anna Paulina Luna, who is running in Florida’s Thirteenth District, added that female candidates can help Republicans blunt attacks from Democrats claiming racism and sexism.

“Candidates like myself, and so many of the other candidates today, actually scare the heck out of the Democratic Party platform, because they can’t actually use their identity politics against us. I am a Hispanic female veteran. I’m not supposed to exist in their world, at least not as a conservative, and so I talk about my upbringing and experience, and how these progressive policies actually did nothing for me when I grew up in the welfare system,” she told the Daily Caller.…

This news report from the Daily Callers congressional correspondent is really positive news. The 3rd ranking Republican I. The House is a woman who replaced the traitor rino Cheney is working to elect yet more women to the House. Suburban minority women. Included who will return the majority to the GOP in November.

 

The candidates the GOP are recruiting are taking democrats race and gender cards away from them. These working and small business class minority community women are not supposed to exist according to democrat dogma. They are supposed to be liberals and democrats but are neither based on their real life experiences.

 

I like it.

Rolling out her latest tranche of E-PAC endorsements, @EliseStefanik says she predicts there will be more than 50 GOP women in the next Congress.

I do too. In 2020 the GOP gains in the House were primarily women and or minority community members and 2022 looks to be a repeat of that. The Dems have lost their gender and race cards for the upcoming election

 

Trust me, liberals will make new cards. Without identity politics, freebies and hatred, democrats have nothing else to sell.

 

Trans in women’s sports and bathrooms along with teaching kindergarten students about gay sex and drag queens and CRT/ woke cancel culture are their new identity issues/cards.

 

Considering that Ms Luna barely won the GOP primary in the 13th Congressional Seat is not what i call a glorifying win at all. Simply a person is of color, or a specific gender, does not mean that the issues they talk about will get them elected into that seat.

 

Good strategy for GOP in 50/50 Districts.
Just might get enough Independent Women to be conned into falling for Identity Politics.

 

The risk is if the GOP women are "too pro trump" for their image, those independent women will be thinking another MTG or LB type of person.

 

They already played that woke-card when they installed Marjorie Green who is now the face of the new populist Republican party.

 

Excellent point.

 

“Candidates like myself, and so many of the other candidates today, actually scare the heck out of the Democratic Party platform, because they can’t actually use their identity politics against us. I am a Hispanic female veteran. I’m not supposed to exist in their world, at least not as a conservative..."

Reminds me of our new Republican Lt. Governor in Virginia, who is the frontrunner to be our next Governor...




But, you know....

 

Right out of the Dems playbook

 

She gave plenty of reasons in the article why she will be elected.

 

I understand what she said and she won like 23% of the total vote in a very crowded field in the GOP primary. So, the results do not match the rhetoric she is giving.

 

Republican women CAN'T be as bad as Republican men, can they??





SNORT...... I knew I couldn't hold that in....

Recently, they're much much worse.... I'd list a few of the more disgusting, but why bother.... we all know who they are...

Save America... Ignore all R's on your ballot!!

 

True, EB...
The FACES of The GOP...

 

Those are the 2 most obvious, but after reading about the KBJ hearings, I think we clearly need to add this Backwoods Betty to the list

 

Blackburn has always been a Freakshow.
Blackburn makes Michelle Bachman seem grounded.



In our latest look at Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, she's still a lying, partisan piece of garbage, currently trying to claim whatever the top news story of the day is, is the reason why Joe Biden should resign.

If they oppose more gun control, they have my vote. Unless their opponent also opposes more gun control (ikr...).

 

Did you mention freak show?

 

So the RNC is raising money for one specific class of people that they feel are underrepresented in their midst?
Isn't that the exact definition of Affirmative Action?
My favorite part is how Stefanik desperately tries to differentiate what they are doing from something that democrats do by saying that they support female candidates that are the best "district fit". So in other words, you are trying to pick a winner? Ya don't think that that is what every PAC does?
Anyways congratulations to the RNC for finaly discovering that women can be politicians. Bravo.
In your banner year, you just might beat your previous record of having 16 percent of republican congresswomen.

 

This is what so annoys me.
Why are women "gender cards" ?
They are people who happen to be female.
The only thing they should represent is party platforms and I would think any semi intelligent voter votes for or against that and not the gender of the candidate.
