DCCC Chairman DelBene: “We are in a strong position to win back the majority in the House of Representatives”

DCCC, DNC and DSCC chairs join Morning Joe on the eve of Election Day to discuss Democrats' path to victory in all races

Today, DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene, DSCC Chair Gary Peters and DNC Chair Jaime Harrison joined MSNBC's Morning Joe to discuss the Democrats' strong position heading into Election Day.

Up and down the election, Democrats have built strong ground operations to persuade and engage voters in the 2024 election. Voters see the stark contrast between Democrats' fight for working families and Republicans' extreme attacks on abortion rights, efforts to eliminate affordable health care and plans to raise taxes on the middle class.

I've been (in Iowa) the last few days and we're feeling incredible excitement there. We're in a strong position to take back the majority in the House, and we just need to pick up… four more seats to take back the majority, and we've got three of them right here on the I-80 corridor.

Opportunities to grab two seats in Iowa with Lanon Baccam and Christina Bohannan, and right next door in Omaha with Tony Vargas.

So we have an incredible ground game, just like Senator Peters mentioned. We work hard to get every vote across the country, and our ticket is broad. We have races here, but also in New York and California, in Alabama, Michigan and Wisconsin, all over the country. So we have an incredible chance of getting places anywhere.

There is enthusiasm, there is energy, and people are tired of the chaos, dysfunction and extremism that they have seen from House Republicans. These are all reasons why we win.

(…)

People are really tired of the extremism that they're seeing and want people returning to Washington, DC as independent leaders to stand up for their communities. And so there was enormous energy on site. People work hard to vote every time they vote, and obviously the abortion ban put in place (in Iowa) has also motivated women, and they're going to vote, and women are becoming a strong voice in this election, everywhere but definitely have right here in Iowa.
