Please see the statement below from DCCC Chairman Ben Ray Luján following the Super Tuesday:
“The Super Tuesday results mean that Speaker Paul Ryan’s worst nightmare has come true: Donald Trump is the clear frontrunner for the Republican nomination, and Ted Cruz is the only viable alternative. Paul Ryan and Greg Walden know from their own polling that these are the two most damaging presidential nominees for House Republicans’ reelection prospects, making their worst case scenarios for 2016 a foregone conclusion.”
“With Donald Trump moving closer and closer to becoming the Republican nominee and Hillary Clinton demonstrating overwhelming support on the Democratic side, we have a snapshot of a general election match up that will provide a clear contrast for voters and yield big Democratic victories up and down the ticket.”
