民主党国会竞选委员会（DCCC）将5个新选区纳入其“红转蓝”计划名单，该项目旨在为竞争激烈选区的候选人提供支持。
“红转蓝”计划将为弗吉尼亚州的汤姆·佩里埃洛、南卡罗来纳州的南希·拉克尔、缅因州的马特·邓拉普、肯塔基州的扎克·登博以及佛罗里达州的莉拉·格雷提供支持，至此该计划指定的竞选选区总数达到37个。
此次新增选区表明，民主党众议院竞选团队认为可争取拿下的席位越来越多，该党正努力夺回共和党以微弱优势掌控的众议院多数席位。此次宣布也意味着将对这些特定选区投入更多资源。

“这些候选人都是久经考验的斗士，他们正在开展强有力的竞选活动，与每位选民沟通，并在意识形态光谱中建立跨阵营联盟，助力他们在11月的选举中获胜，”民主党国会竞选委员会主席、华盛顿州联邦众议员苏珊·德尔贝内（D-Wash.）在一份声明中表示。
“红转蓝”计划在一份新闻稿中称，这五位新候选人将获得战略指导、工作人员资源、培训和筹款支持，“以确保他们处于最佳状态，赢得11月的选举”。
值得注意的是，这五位候选人都有公开服务或军事服役经历。
在佛罗里达州第13国会选区参选的莉拉·格雷于周二晚间赢得民主党提名，她突出了自己30年的陆军职业生涯，期间晋升为准将军衔。
她的经历与南卡罗来纳州第1国会选区民主党候选人南希·拉克尔相似，后者曾是三星级海军上将。

同样，试图拿下肯塔基州第6选区的扎克·登博曾担任海军军法署军官和司法部检察官。
剩下两位候选人——缅因州第2选区的马特·邓拉普以及弗吉尼亚州第5国会选区民主党提名候选人汤姆·佩里埃洛——都曾担任过公职。
邓拉普曾担任缅因州州务卿，而佩里埃洛曾是联邦众议员。
尽管加大了关注力度，但这些选区中的大多数仍对共和党来说相对安全。其中三个选区——弗吉尼亚州第5选区、南卡罗来纳州第1选区和肯塔基州第6选区——共和党平均以19.3%的得票优势获胜。
只有佛罗里达州第13选区和缅因州第2选区的胜选差距不足10%。
值得一提的是，缅因州这场竞选是这五个选区中竞争最激烈的：2024年该选区仅以0.6%的微弱优势由民主党现任众议员贾里德·戈尔登（D-Maine）胜出。戈尔登不会寻求连任。
除了服役背景，民主党国会竞选委员会主席德尔贝内表示，这些候选人将重点关注选民认为共和党承诺过多、兑现过少的议题。

“美国家庭正深陷众议院共和党人打破的承诺和高企的成本困境，他们渴望有领导人始终将社区福祉放在首位，而非盲目批准特朗普失败的议程，”德尔贝内说道。

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) is adding five new races to its Red to Blue list, a program that looks to equip candidates in particularly competitive districts.
The Red to Blue program is backing Tom Perriello in Virginia, Nancy Lacore in South Carolina, Matt Dunlap in Maine, Zach Dembo in Kentucky and Leela Gray in Florida, bringing the program’s designated races to a total of 37.
The additions indicate a growing number of seats the party’s House campaign arm believes it can win as they try to retake the House of Representatives, where Republicans hold a slim majority. The announcement also telegraphs further investment in those particular races.

“All of these candidates are proven fighters who are running strong campaigns, talking to every voter, and building coalitions across the ideological spectrum to power their victories in November,” DCCC Chair Rep. Suzan DelBene, D-Wash., said in a statement.
The five new candidates can expect to receive strategic guidance, staff resources, training and fundraising support “to ensure they are in the best possible position to win in November,” Red to Blue stated in a press release.
Notably, all five candidates have some record of prior public or military service.
Leela Gray, running in Florida’s 13th Congressional District, captured the Democratic nomination on Tuesday evening, highlighting her 30-year Army career, during which she rose to the rank of brigadier general.
Her record is similar to that of Nancy Lacore, the Democratic candidate in South Carolina’s 1st Congressional District, and her story as a former three-star Navy admiral.

Similarly, Zach Dembo, who is trying to flip Kentucky’s 6th District, served as a Navy JAG officer and DOJ prosecutor.
The remaining two candidates — Matt Dunlap in Maine’s 2nd District and Tom Perriello, the Democratic nominee in Virginia’s 5th Congressional District — both have held public office before.
Dunlap served as Maine Secretary of State, while Perriello is a former congressman.
Despite the additional focus, most of the districts are relatively safe for Republicans. Three of them, VA-05, S.C.-01 and KY-06, were all won by the GOP by an average 19.3% margin of victory.
Only two of them, FL-13 and ME-02, were decided by less than 10%.
Notably, the Maine race is the most competitive out of the group, having been decided by just 0.6% in 2024 in a narrow win for Rep. Jared Golden, D-Maine. Golden is not pursuing re-election.
In addition to their service backgrounds, DelBene, the DCCC chair, said the candidates would stress areas where voters might feel like Republicans have overpromised and underdelivered.

“American families are struggling under the broken promises and higher costs caused by House Republicans, and they’re eager for leaders who will always put the well-being of their communities first, not rubber-stamp Trump’s failed agenda,” DelBene said.
