NPR US NewsDemocrats made midterm gains in rural areas. Can they keep them? - Democrats had better than expected midterm elections in 2022, partly because of their ability to draw votes from rural areas. These voters could create new battlegrounds in 2024. #npr
fcv@NPR_USNews “I do think Democrats ran some more candidates that are seen as working class that knew how to speak kind of common sense” … “The one disconnect that we see is that Democrats tend to contact rural voters at much lower rates”. Overall, this is very encouraging. I would love to see the Democratic Party continue to make headway w/ rural voters "lot of blue dots in red places is a key part of how they [we] win." #RuralDemocrats #RuralAmerica #DemocratsUnite
