House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said the Republican win in Virginia’s governor’s race on Tuesday shows that many more Democrats are likely in a vulnerable position going into the 2022 elections if they keep voting for ultra-left policies that are not popular with American voters.
“If you’re a Democrat [and] President Biden won your seat by 16 points, you’re in a competitive race next year,“ McCarthy said of what he estimated were 70 Democrat-held seats during a press conference on Wednesday. ”There’s many that are going to lose their races based upon walking off a cliff from Nancy Pelosi pushing them. She may not care if she loses—she lost 63 the last time she was Speaker, moving policy that the country didn’t care for.”
