DemDaily: The 2023 Election Calendar!
January 31, 2023
While much of the focus has turned to the 2024 congressional races, the 2023 "off-year" elections will be critical in determining the political climate going into the presidential year.
Three gubernatorial races -- in Kentucky, Louisiana and Mississippi -- head up the top races to watch in 2023, along with big city mayoral contests and a handful of decisive legislature battles.
Nationwide, however, there are hundreds more municipal, judicial, and local elections that are up in close to 40 states.
DemList, as always, will keep you informed on all developments.
