National Republicans believe they have narrowed the number of seats for which Democrats can seriously compete, a result of a redistricting cycle that heavily favored the current Congressional majority. In a memo set to be released today, the NRCC will be touting 16 Democratic-held seats it believes are in play as a result of the process.
In the memo, NRCC executive director Guy Harrison argues that the process has made 16 Democratic-held seats more competitive while making just 14 Republican-held seats more competitive. The memo also claims that redistricting has taken more Republican-held seats than Democratic-held seats out of play.
