| New race ratings from non-partisan outlet National Journal’s House Power Rankings list Mike Lawler as the 6th most vulnerable Republican incumbent in the entire country.
Key quotes from National Journal:
- The Hudson Valley district swung by roughly 2,000 votes to Harris in 2024 […] That margin keeps the seat firmly on Democrats’ radar and makes it one of the most plausible red-to-blue flips this cycle.
- Given Lawler’s slim majority in his district, an energized Democratic base could make this one of the most competitive races in the country.
- Even a small shift in turnout or enthusiasm could tip the balance toward Democrats.
DCCC Spokesperson Riya Vashi:
“Mike Lawler’s disastrous record of blind loyalty to Donald Trump has solidified him as one of the most vulnerable Republicans in the entire country. From raising costs on working families to gutting health care to fund tax breaks for billionaires, Hudson Valley voters are fed up with Lawler and more than ready to show him the door.” |
