off-year

Presidential elections historically draw a far greater turnout than off-year elections, and 2024 is bound to be no different.

Most of the country picked its governors in the 2022 off-year elections, but North Carolina is gearing up for an intense race this fall.

As Rosenberg put it incredulously, “The theory is that all this—the fact that Democrats just keep winning everywhere in red states and blue states, and ballot initiatives, and off-year elections, and special elections—isn’t going to translate over into 2024.”

If democracy and abortion rights are really top of mind for voters, then one would think that the 2024 results would mirror the 2018, 2020, 2022, and off-year/special elections where Democrats have mostly prevailed in key swing districts and states.

Biden’s reelection campaign noted that Democrats have racked up a series of special election and off-year legislative victories since he took office.
