As expected, the matter has reached another stage.

Laurie Buckhout, a former cattle rancher and U.S. Army veteran, is running to unseat Democratic Rep. Don Davis in North Carolina’s Congressional District 1. She has garnered significant momentum and was endorsed by President Donald Trump. Buckhout believes Democrats are “out of touch” with women voters and that Republicans will take the seat. Other female Republican candidates, such as Carrie Buck and Tiffany Burress, are also running to flip blue districts red. The GOP is targeting key districts to retain the majority in the House.

The familiar script of female Republican candidates running against Democratic incumbents is playing out again.
