House GOP marches into deeper blue terrain as Dem prospects fade – POLITICO

By Thomas A. Smith

Rep. Kim Schrier called it an honor to welcome President Joe Biden to suburban Seattle for a health care speech in April. Then, nearly three months later, the Washington Democrat used a TV ad to boast about taking on the Biden administration over gas prices.

This kind of pivot in a House battleground which Biden won by 7 points just two years ago isn t an anomaly. Recent GOP polling in roughly a dozen swing districts offers a bleak portrait of how President Joe Biden s anemic approval ratings are threatening to doom battle-tested swing-seat incumbents and nudge once-safe districts into the middle of the danger zone.
