One Year Out: Republicans Have the Momentum. Democrats are Flailing.
November 4, 2025
A new memo from the NRCC lays out the clear picture one year from Election Day 2026: House Republicans hold clear momentum and Democrats like Jared Golden are sinking to rock bottom.
Historic fundraising, a favorable national environment, and wins for working families put Republicans on offense while Golden and House Democrats are broke, divided, and losing the messaging war.
“House Republicans are charging into 2026 with unstoppable momentum and delivering results. Meanwhile, Jared Golden and Democrats are proving just how out of touch they are with Mainers.” — NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
