'We knew the first time that I ran in 2020 that we would probably—potentially—have to run multiple times. To not just wear the incumbent down but to really get in front of the electorate,' Kina Collins, a progressive organizer in Illinois, said.
The 2024 cycle isn’t looking any easier, as both parties desperately try to seize the House majority—in a presidential election year, no less.“We knew the first time that I ran in 2020 that we would probably—potentially—have to run multiple times,” said Kina Collins, a progressive organizer in Illinois, who is primarying longtime Rep. Danny Davis for a third time.
“She’s built a strong grassroots base of support in the district and came incredibly close last year,” a McLeod Skinner spokesperson said in a statement, adding that “with a strong team and energized base, she raised $100k in the first 24-hours of her launch.” Call 2024 the year of the rematch—at least when it comes to progressives taking on incumbents they’ve already gone after before.
Odessa Kelly, a Tennessee progressive who was backed by the campaign group Justice Democrats last year, told The Daily Beast she’s considering another run. She originally mounted a challenge to then-Rep. Jim Cooper in 2022. After redistricting gave Republicans the strong advantage, she ran against Rep. Mark Green instead in a neighboring district. She lost in the general election.
