Reps. Jared Golden , Mary Sattler Peltola , Yadira Caraveo , Val Hoyle , Marie Gluesenkamp Perez , and Sen. Martin Heinrich are skipping the DNC. The news could indicate that Democrats in tough battles to keep their seats believe aligning themselves with Harris could hurt their chances of winning reelection.he would spend August “mostly away from the well-worn campaign trail, meeting voters in the places Mainers go to enjoy summer in our great state,” in a post to X over the weekend.
In July, Heinrich called for Biden to suspend his reelection bid. He has since voiced support for the Harris-Walz campaign. Peltola secured her seat by 10 percentage points in 2022 through a special election and has confirmed she would be unable to attend the DNC because she would be “campaigning in-state.”
Peltola represents a state Republican presidential candidates have easily won for decades. She’s one of the only pro-fossil fuel Democrats in the House and attracted attention after she didn’t jump to support the vice president’s bid for the White House, citing potential concerns over Harris’s energy policies. She later told theshows that Peltola’s district ranks as one of the reddest to be occupied by a Democrat.
Like Baldwin, Casey appears to believe an alliance with Harris, who has been rising in national polls, will help him clinch victory this November. He is also set to address Democrats on Thursday before Harris gives her own highly anticipated prime-time speech at the DNC.AOC uses bartending roots to rally Democrats at DNC opening and jab at Trump
