维多利亚·布罗德里克与西里尔·杰斐逊强调，尽管几乎没有付费广告投入，仍在与共和党现任议员的竞争中保持微弱领先，这离不开基层志愿者的支持。

“这对共和党来说是一场‘毁灭性的溃败’”：盖伊·本森

民主党人维多利亚·布罗德里克两年前曾以43个百分点的差距输给共和党议员斯科特·德斯贾莱斯，而在田纳西州深红选区发布的官方最终结果中，她目前仅以280票的微弱差距领先——尽管她的竞选支出不到10万美元，且从未投放付费电视广告。
如果这一领先优势保持下去，将终结德斯贾莱斯16年的国会生涯。这位共和党人于2010年首次当选，正在寻求第九个任期，而他所在的选区在2024年总统大选中曾让唐纳德·特朗普以24个百分点的优势获胜。
选举日前可查的联邦选举委员会最新数据显示，德斯贾莱斯的竞选团队截至10月14日共花费508,166美元，而布罗德里克的竞选团队仅花费90,062美元。他的竞选筹款总额是布罗德里克的7倍多——分别为667,181美元和94,217美元，这位长期任职的现任议员目前正在这片深红选区陷入劣势。

据 axios 援引 AdImpact 的数据，布罗德里克的竞选团队没有投放付费电视广告的记录。相反，她将胜选希望归功于已筹备两年多的基层运营团队。
布罗德里克并非唯一有望以低支出爆冷拿下众议院席位的民主党人。axios 还指出了北卡罗来纳州的类似竞选：该市市长西里尔·杰斐逊目前以51.1%对48.9%的支持率领先共和党议员艾迪生·麦克道尔。
据 axios 援引 AdImpact 的数据，杰斐逊的竞选支出未被追踪记录，不过另有追踪数据显示其在谷歌广告上投入了2,000美元，其中包括YouTube广告位。

据选举结果显示，麦克道尔在2024年曾以38.3个百分点的优势赢得该选区。

布罗德里克告诉 axios，她的意外领先对团队而言并不意外。

“我知道这对美国其他地区来说可能是个意外，但对我们团队来说并非意外，”她说道。
杰斐逊同样将领先优势归功于志愿者，他表示：“你必须去动员他们。”

Democrat poised to flip deep-red House seat without airing a single TV ad

This was a ‘biblical wipeout’ for Republicans: Guy Benson

Two years after losing to Republican Rep. Scott DesJarlais by 43 points, Democrat Victoria Broderick is leading in his deep-red Tennessee district by just 280 votes in the state’s unofficial final results — despite spending under $100,000 and airing no paid TV ads.
If her lead holds, the result would end DesJarlais’ 16-year congressional career. First elected in 2010, the Republican was seeking his ninth term in a district President Donald Trump carried by 24 points in 2024.
The latest FEC figures available before Election Day show DesJarlais’ campaign spent $508,166 through Oct. 14, compared with just $90,062 for Broderick. His campaign also raised more than seven times as much as hers — $667,181 to $94,217 — yet the longtime incumbent is trailing in the deep-red seat.

Axios reported, citing AdImpact, that Broderick’s campaign had no record of airing paid television ads. Instead, she credited a grassroots operation that had been building for more than two years.
Broderick was not the only Democrat threatening to pull off a low-dollar House upset. Axios also highlighted a similar race in North Carolina, where High Point Mayor Cyril Jefferson currently leads Republican Rep. Addison McDowell 51.1% to 48.9%.
Axios reported, citing AdImpact, that Jefferson had no tracked advertising spending, although a separate tracker lists $2,000 in Google ads, including YouTube placements.

“I know it was a shock for the rest of the country, but it wasn’t a shock for our team,” she said.
Jefferson similarly credited volunteers, saying, “You have to go engage them.”

Wake Forest University political science professor John Dinan told local news outlet WFDD that challengers in such a Republican-leaning district would normally need “a lot of TV ads and a lot of money,” but “there wasn’t a whole lot of money spent.”

The two races showed how grassroots organizing and strong local candidates can make traditionally Republican districts competitive despite major financial disadvantages.
