Hard to say. I'm not much of a fan of Maloney because of his politics, and I'm a bit dismayed that the DCCC would choose an incumbent from a swingy seat given what happened to Bustos this year (redistricting could help Maloney but it won't be a strongly D district and would still be susceptible to Republican swings given the region's trends). Regardless, the DCCC spot is going to be a tough gig this cycle since Democratic losses are basically a given, so whoever runs it should keep minimizing Democratic losses in mind.

Looks like Kinzinger and Meijer have already gotten primary challengers:

Dems best possible candidate (out performed Trump by almost 30 points), but he won't win this federal race and this will almost certainly result in the flip of his state house seat.



He's probably only running as a way to get out of what will clearly be a challenging legislative seat to hold in a Biden midterm.

This feels like a Hail Mary though I’m curious why he overpreform’s so much.

My guess is it has something to do with Lumbee voters splitting their tickets because of parochial issues (Graham is Lumbee and has been representing the area since before Trump made big gains with those voters).

LOL. Golden voted in favor of an amendment which is giving the right to vote to inmates.

A very dumb move considering how his district is leaning.

Maine actually has a system like this where it is legal for incarcerated people to vote from prison, so his vote makes a lot of sense in that regard.

Also, not sure what your post has to do with recruitment.

The DCCC released its offensive target list for 2022 yesterday:



It's obviously a much more limited list of seats (mostly just close losses in 2020), though there are a few districts that seem like possible redistricting targets - as well as ignoring several seats where redistricting will take once competitive seats off the table.

The NRCC is adding a ten more districts to their target list:



CA-07, CA-16, CA-36, IL-03, MI-05, NY-04, NY-20, NY-25, NY-26, PA-06

(Obviously, all of these seats are pretty big stretches in their current forms, but it's likely in anticipation of these seats being changed significantly in redistricting.)

Yesterday was the deadline to report Q2 Fundraising. Here's a list of fundraising in races targeted by the NRCC/DCCC per Rob Pyers-



(I don't put much stock in fundraising numbers anymore, but there are some interesting numbers in here nonetheless.)

These are not R vs. D but Biden approval numbers, but given how rarely we get any CD polling, I thought I’d post them here and not in the Biden Approval thread (feel free to move).

This is Fabrizio Ward (R) for the National Taxpayers Union:

Biden Approve/Disapprove:
 
AZ-1 (O'Halleran) – 39/60
PA-8 (Cartwright) – 40/57
PA-17 (Lamb) – 38/59
KS-3 (Davids) – 43/57

2020 results in those districts:

AZ-1: Biden 50-48
PA-8: Trump 52-47
PA-17: Biden 51-48
KS-3: Biden 54-44

https://www.ntu.org/publications/detail/ntu-poll-taxpayers-oppose-35-trillion-reconciliation-plan-energy-tax-hike-provisions

Obviously a partisan source, but Biden holding up better in PA-08 than AZ-01 and PA-17 particularly seems pretty doubtful (though I suppose that's in line with pollsters consistently finding overinflated Democratic numbers in the non-big metro upper Midwest).

A DCCC internal has the GOP winning the generic ballot 47-39.

This article also mentions that CLF polled 16 districts that Biden won "by an average of eight points" and found a tied generic ballot in those districts:

Quote
Districts polled include seats held by Reps. Abigail Spanberger (Va.), Kim Schrier (Wash.), Mike Levin (Calif.), Kurt Schrader (Ore.), Angie Craig (Minn.), Susie Lee (Nev.) and Jahana Hayes (Conn.).

Cook has made some rating changes due to New York redistricting:



NY-11 has also been taken off the board.

Cook has rated the new NH-01 and NH-02 as tossups:



This means that they now have initial ratings for every new congressional district (see chart here)-
