I had a great time talking with @dani_james21, @maggielynng and @melinnky on some of the non-stop work they've been doing on the MIRS election guide and almanac for the '24 cycle, and what House races they are already reporting on in the month of April!
The MIRS team discusses what could be the most competitive primaries, as well as who could be the most vulnerable incumbents, in the 2024 state House elections. Over 100 reps are seeking reelection, and over 32% of them are facing primary challengers. zurl.co/a6nA
