LABOR DAY 2020 ELECTION PRIMER a Look Ahead to November LABOR DAY 2020 ELECTION PRIMER A Look Ahead to November LABOR DAY 2020 ELECTION PRIMER | A Look Ahead to November • 1 Introduction As the saying goes, “Eight weeks before an election is a lifetime in politics.” If you have any doubts about the truth of this adage, we suggest speaking with “Presidents” Michael Dukakis or Hillary Clinton! Simply put, there are few, if any, slam dunks in politics. Elections continue to have the capacity to surprise and confound. When the Democratic primary process began with over 25 candidates, who would ever have thought that we would end up with an election between two of the oldest candidates ever to run for the office? Current polling indicates that, if the election were held today, Vice President Biden is near or above the 270 electoral votes he needs to win election. These same polls say the Senate would flip, ever so narrowly, to Democratic control and the House Democratic majority would be relatively unchanged. However Labor Day is certainly not Election Day (see Dukakis and Hillary mentions above). And now is, historically, when the race officially begins. This Election Primer, the first in Dentons’ Election Series, sets the stage for the race to November. From the “top of the ticket” to the down-ballot congressional and state house contests across the country, we track the races that could change majorities in November. More detailed reports will be released as we get closer to election day. We hope this 10,000-foot view helps get you up to speed.

  • 1605026 NY Spotlight Memo
    ! MEMORANDUM TO: Interested Parties FROM: Alixandria Lapp, Executive Director, House Majority PAC DATE: May 26, 2016 RE: Congressional Democrats Poised for Pick-Ups Across the Empire State With just over a month until New York’s June 28 congressional primaries, and just under six months from the November general election, Democrats are poised for significant pick-ups in congressional districts across the Empire State. This year Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense in New York – with at least six Republican held seats that could be flipped this November. Multiple Republican incumbents and challengers are finding their already-precarious political prospects diminishing even further as they struggle with a damaging party brand, a toxic presidential ticket-mate, and increasingly prove themselves out of touch with their own districts. Bottom line: With New York’s congressional Republicans increasingly vulnerable heading into the fall, Democrats are overwhelmingly on offense and well-positioned to win key districts across the state in 2016. New York Republicans Tied to Toxic Brand As in any presidential year, down-ballot races will be heavily shaped by the top of the ticket. For Republicans, particularly in New York, that’s bad news. Even before the GOP presidential race took shape, New York’s congressional Republicans faced significant structural political challenges. In six competitive Republican-held districts, President Obama either won or came within 1% of winning in 2008 and 2012. Now with Donald Trump as their presidential ticket-mate, down-ballot prospects for New York Republicans are far worse. Earlier this month, a poll by Morning Consult found that nearly half of all Americans would “be less likely to support candidates for public office if they say they back Donald Trump.” And despite Donald Trump’s big win in New York’s presidential primary, there’s no indication that it will translate to success in November.

A legendary performer and global ambassador for his hometown of New Orleans, he won six Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Hall of Fame—but how many people have Muppets created in their image? At least Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem play on. SEC approves Regulation Best Interest, Form CRS At a long-anticipated meeting on Wednesday, the Securities and Exchange Commission voted 3-1 to approve a package of rules and guidance establishing the obligations of investment advisers and brokers to their customers. Regulation Best Interest (BI) goes beyond previous “suitability” standards for investment brokers to ban certain practices and address elements of the broker-customer relationship including cost considerations and conflicts in broker compensation. Form CRS is a streamlined disclosure document to provide retail customers with information about fees, costs, services, conflicts of interest, the applicable standards of conduct, and any previous legal or disciplinary history. The Commission also approved an interpretation that updates and clarifies the standards of conduct for investment advisers under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, and an interpretation of the “solely incidental” aspect of the broker-dealer exclusion under the Investment Advisers Act, intended to offer clearer guidance about when a broker- dealer’s activities cross the threshold to become investment advice.

  • September 2, 2021 President Joseph R. Biden the White House 1600
    September 2, 2021 President Joseph R. Biden The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear President Biden: On September 2, 2021, New York Governor Hochul officially requested an Emergency Declaration for the State of New York as a result of the severe impact the storm had. As Members of Congress representing communities directly impacted by the severe winds, heavy rains, and record-breaking flooding, we urge you to issue such a declaration as soon as possible. Last night, our constituents experienced historic flooding and winds from the remnants of Post- Tropical DepressionIda. As a result, thousands of New Yorkers woke up this morning with flooded homes, damaged vehicles, and an inability to access critical public infrastructure like public transportation and hospitals. Tragically, this storm also took numerous lives, with still potentially more people who have not been accounted for. The impact of Ida will also leave us with many significant health and economic strain as the people of our states work to find a safe path to recovery in an already difficult time. New York State has deployed significant resources in response to Ida across the state Department of Transportation, Thruway Authority, Department of Environmental Conservation, Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, Department of Public Service, New York State Police, New York Power Authority, New York State Canal Corporation, the Canal Corporation, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, Port Authority and Department of Financial Services. Substantial funding will be required in infrastructure repair and debris removal costs that exceed both the per capita threshold and the Statewide threshold.
