Campaign Fund Of Jimmy Ausbrooks issued the following announcement on Nov.11.
The Republican Main Street Partnership is beginning to build a “farm team” to help the GOP recapture the House from Democrats come 2022.
The group of moderate Republicans, which bills itself as “the governing wing of the Republican Party,” counts 55 members of Congress in its ranks, according to its website, and it is in the early stages of charting the GOP’s way back to the majority in the House.
Republican Main Street Partnership CEO Sarah Chamberlain said her team is focused in 2020 on protecting vulnerable House Republicans while flipping a handful of seats that Democrats added in the 2018 midterms.
Ms. Chamberlain said she thinks Republicans could pick up two to three seats next November, but likely not gain more than five seats, meaning the House looks to be out of reach until 2022.
“We’ve never really built a farm team, Main Street now is trying to really build a farm team,” Ms. Chamberlain said in an interview. “We need a farm team and that is our big push. And that’s why our really big push with focusing on 2022 — hold what we have, try to add a few, and then really go all out in 2022.”
Ms. Chamberlain said the GOP is facing a “crisis” with suburban voters, particularly women who are “not opposed to anything [Trump is] doing, they’re just opposed to how he’s doing it.”
Next week, the Republican Main Street Partnership is hosting its first-ever candidate school with seven candidates for House seats set to gather in private in D.C.
