New Statewide Flip, with wins up & down the ballot

You are viewing The Plan to Win 2020. Feel free to explore our past strategy, or jump to The Plan to Win 2022 here.

Nevada played an important role in winning back the White House and protecting the U.S. House majority in 2020. Despite a track record of voting for Democratic Presidential candidates since 2008, the Trump campaign set its sights on winning back Nevada for Republicans this year. In 2016, Hillary Clinton won the state with less than 50% of the vote and a two-point margin, lending validity to the Republicans’ 2020 hopes. This state was assumed to be safe but Way to Win knew we could not lose Nevada and win Arizona, so continued to prioritize investments in the state, a state where Biden ended with 50.1% of the vote. In addition to the Presidential contest, Democrats are focused on defending two highly competitive U.S. House seats, in Congressional Districts 3 and 4. These districts have reliably bounced between party control since their creation after the 2010 census, and required real investment in organizing efforts to remain under Democratic control. Losses were prevented in 2020, setting the stage for 2022 when a Senate seat is back on the map.
