NRCC Chairman Tom Emmer tried to do damage control at a private caucus meeting, arguing to GOP lawmakers that any suggestions of turmoil within the campaign arm were being fabricated by Democrats and the press
The House GOP campaign arm is under fire from Republicans who are growing increasingly anxious about the party’s plan to win back the chamber in 2020.
“Our communications team has a direct mandate from me and Leader [Kevin] McCarthy to be ruthless,” he said.Sign Up One of the chief complaints from GOP lawmakers is that the party has yet to unveil its rival to ActBlue, the online fundraising platform that Democrats have used to rake in massive amounts of small-dollar donations.
But nearly six months into the new election cycle, members have still not been briefed on the details of the operation or when it will be functional. Lawmakers also don’t know which incumbents or first-time candidates will have access to it, according to multiple GOP consultants. And several GOP fundraising firms have no plans to integrate with the Win Red database.
One of the hiccups, according to multiple sources, is the name had to be changed because New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft — a top ally to President Donald Trump — complained it sounded too similar to his NFL team. “Win Red is a collaborative effort of multiple organizations,” Pack added. “It’s unrealistic to think this massive undertaking would happen overnight.”| Jacquelyn Martin/AP Photo
