2018 Congressional Recruitment/Fundraising/Ratings Megathread

[KingSweden]

J.D. Scholten (Steve Kings opponet) out raised him last quarter https://mobile.twitter.com/Scholten4Iowa/status/960585362413416451

Tough district, but I’d love to see Viktor Orban Jr go down.

[The Other Castro]

Here's a chart I made of the 4Q fundraising, data courtesy of DailyKos, showing the 82 Republican-held seats that had Democrats come within $100K, out-raise the top Republican running, and/or end with more cash on hand than the Republican.

Tennessee’s Phil Roe Could Be 10th GOP Chairman to Call It Quits

Tennessee Rep. Phil Roe, the chairman of the Veterans’ Affairs Committee, says he’ll decide in the “next week or so” whether to run for a sixth term, citing family considerations as a reason he may opt against re-election.

[Virginiá]

Roe? boooooo BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

TN-01 is among the most Republican-leaning seats in the country. We need more competitive seat retirements

The brain drain on the GOP side is crazy.

He’d be fulfilling a five-term pledge if he stepped down.

As long as it doesn’t guarantee Glasson the nomination if no one gets 35% or more. Bouton looks like the strongest.

Primary's in June, yes?

Rep. Claudia Tenney struggles to raise money for 2018 battle with Brindisi

WASHINGTON -- U.S. Rep. Claudia Tenney is struggling to raise money for her 2018 election campaign against State Assemblyman Anthony Brindisi in what is expected to be one of the most competitive House races in the nation, new disclosure reports show.

Brindisi, D-Utica, raised about $100,000 more than Tenney, R-New Hartford, in the last quarter, and now has more campaign cash than the first-term congresswoman, according to reports filed today with the Federal Election Commission in Washington.

She was previously hyped as a rising star...though I'm not sure where she would rise to in NY.

New Mexico filing deadline was today?  Anybody have any updates?

Yes, I know, I've ended up answering my own question twice now when asking this (on different states.)

I always figured that upstate New York would always been one of the first places to snap back against Trump.

Also after the results in Missouri tonight, it might not be a bad idea to move MO-02 to at least Likely-R.

Not all of the names mentioned on the www.politics1.com site are running, but with the exception of Jerald Steve McFall who is running for the Republicans in the 3rd district, everybody who is running is listed at http://www.politics1.com/nm.htm

Obvious favorite candidate:
Jasen Lemar Edwards (Write-In) - Self-Proclaimed Head of His Own One-Man Foreign Government

So, if he's the head of his own foreign government, why is he running for Congress?
