March On PAC records 65 victories in massive rebuke of MAGA

March On PAC announced substantial electoral gains after the midterm contests, crediting voters with rejecting MAGA extremism, corruption, and restrictions on core freedoms while supporting candidates who prioritize affordable services and accountability to working families. Democrats regained both the House and Senate and secured additional victories in governors’ offices, state legislatures, and other down-ballot races nationwide. The organization tied these results to sustained efforts that build influence beyond individual campaigns by backing community-based candidates and cultivating future leaders.

This cycle the PAC endorsed 122 candidates across federal, state, and local offices. As of November 4 it recorded 65 victories—19 federal and 46 state or local—with 14 races still undecided, producing a 60 percent win rate among resolved contests. Forty-eight of the winners were challengers or open-seat candidates, and 17 were first-time candidates, reflecting the group’s focus on expanding the Democratic pipeline.

March On PAC identified 25 flips within its portfolio: six U.S. Senate seats, three governorships, three U.S. House seats, four additional statewide offices, and nine state legislative seats. Its candidates won every one of the 12 races in Michigan and every one of the 11 called races in North Carolina, with one North Carolina contest still outstanding.

The organization congratulated Senate winners Jon Ossoff, Abdul El-Sayed, Annie Andrews, Josh Turek, Sherrod Brown, Troy Jackson, James Talarico, and Juliana Stratton, as well as other successful candidates including Shomari Figures, Gina Hinojosa, and Frederick “Freddy” Haynes III.

Andrea “Andi” Pringle, President of March On PAC, stated that voters delivered a massive rebuke of MAGA by reclaiming the House and Senate, electing advocates across the country, and opening possibilities in areas previously viewed as unwinnable. She described the moment as one to honor the voters and organizers who refused to relinquish their influence.

Pringle added that the election concerned affirmations as much as rejections. Voters dismissed cruelty, corruption, and governance that favored billionaires over families. They affirmed the need for affordable healthcare, economic security tied to hard work, freedoms that belong to everyone, and better prospects for children, giving candidates clear reasons to participate.

Pringle noted that Republicans attempted to redraw maps, target rights, and advance billionaire priorities while altering rules to shield their power, viewing the Supreme Court’s Callais decision as an opening to weaken protections against discriminatory redistricting. Communities countered with organized turnout and participation, delivering accountability despite those barriers.

The PAC’s approach centers on early investment in community-rooted fighters and power-building at every level. A durable Democratic bench develops through ongoing support rather than one-time efforts. Forty-eight winning candidates were challengers or open-seat contenders, and 17 were first-time candidates, demonstrating how sustained engagement produces both electoral wins and leadership expansion across the 25 identified flips.

Pringle emphasized that authority resides in state legislatures that set election laws and budgets, governors who can protect or curtail freedoms, local officials who manage schools and services, and Congress with its oversight role. Black voters, women, young people, and working-class communities drove the mobilization and merit continued investment along with a voice in subsequent priorities.

The same persistence applies to campaigns that did not prevail, such as Angie Nixon’s effort in Florida, which built relationships and broadened perceptions of what was achievable. March On PAC is a women-led committee that endorses and supports Democratic candidates committed to reproductive freedom, voting rights, affordability, and racial and economic justice through endorsements, grassroots work, and targeted resources since 2020.
