INDIVISIBLE El Dorado
Strategy: Winning the House
Winning the House
In 2026, the race to control the House is powered by two waves - a redistricting wave with a small net gain for Republicans, coupled with a blue wave of overall enthusiasm for Democrats. There is a clear path for Dems to win. The strongest volunteer effort in just 18 battleground states will decide which Party gets to 218 seats and wins the majority.
What We Need To Do
With the current maps, Dems need to hold their 205 safe seats and four tossup seats. Republicans now hold 212 safe seats and have 14 tossups. To win, we need to hold our four tossups and flip nine of the 14 Republican tossups. In 2018, we flipped 72% of Republican tossups. This year, that performance would equate to 10 new seats and give us the House majority. Also, in a blue wave election, seats that lean Republican could flip. WE CAN DO THIS!
Options for Where to Work
To distribute volunteers most strategically, working in the race closest to you is best. For us in El Dorado County, that means prioritizing CA-03 and our neighbors in the Central Valley. We have strong volunteer outreach programs and years of experience coordinating high-impact action.
