An email to supporters of Republicans in the Senate said the party is “terrified” as Democrats advance on their midterm odds in three unexpected states.
The National Republican Senatorial Committee — the party’s nationwide campaign arm for the GOP in the Senate — sent out a panicked email to donors in which it disclosed the “terrifying report that could reshape the midterms.”
“We just received a terrifying report that could reshape the midterms… All 3 of the major battleground states we need to defend and expand the President’s majority just shifted toward the Democrats!” the group wrote in the internal email. The three potential swing states listed as moving toward the left are Georgia, North Carolina, and Ohio.
The NRSC then sought to explain the new Dem advantage.
“Why did all 3 of those states’ ratings move toward the Democrats?” it asked. “Unfortunately, the Left is still crushing us in voter verifications and voter enthusiasm!”
The group added, “If we don’t close the gap RIGHT NOW, these races are only going to move further toward the Democrats as Election Day draws closer!”
Then, the NRSC appeared to endorse the view that Republicans are unable to win unless they change the landscape of American elections in a move experts say would make it more difficult for poor people to vote.
“That’s why our Party’s Voter Verification Initiative just became our single most important effort of the 2026 midterms,” the email from April 23 admits. “If we’re going to win, we MUST have a 100%, fully verified voter file before voters go to the polls this fall.”
