The House Democratic campaign arm on Wednesday released the second round of candidates named to its “Red to Blue†program, adding to the party's list of top challengers ahead of this fall's midterm elections.
Candidates added to the list include Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, who is challenging Rep. Carlos Curbelo (R-Fla.); Dean Phillips, who is vying to unseat Rep. Erik Paulsen (R-Minn.); Brad Ashford, who is seeking a rematch against Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.); Kathy Manning, who is challenging Rep. Ted Budd (R-N.C.); Mikie Sherrill, who would challenge Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen (D-N.J.); Max Rose, who is hoping to defeat Staten Island-based Rep. Dan Donovan (R-N.Y.); and Salt Lake City Mayor Ben McAdams, who is running for Rep. Mia Love's (R-Utah) seat.
The seven Republicans are all considered to be vulnerable, with Frelinghuysen and Bacon representing seats seen as toss-ups by the Cook Political Report.
