Democrats Gaining in Battleground

The latest House battleground survey by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner for  Democracy Corps and Women's Voices. Women Vote Action Fund confirms that  Democrats are gaining in the most competitive districts, driven primarily by a surge among unmarried women. Republicans have not increased their vote share since last fall and the newest Ryan budget and latest battle in the war on women are unlikely to improve their fortunes. The first Democracy Corps Congressional battleground survey of 2012-which included the 56 most competitive Republican districts and 23 most competitive Democratic seats-comes at an important time and could be the first indicator in what is already turning out to be a hotly contested election year. Stanley Greenberg, co-founder, along with James Carville, of Democracy Corps and CEO of Greenberg Quinlan Rosner and Page Gardner, Founder and President of the Voter Participation Center and Women's Voices. Women Vote Action Fund will discuss the results of the new Battleground survey this Wednesday. Greenberg and Gardner will be available for questions after the presentation.
