Op-ed Urges Defeating Election-Denying Republicans in 2026 Midterms
Original: Want to Avoid Another Jan. 6? Defeat These Republicans. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/09/opinion/midterms-wisconsin-ge
A New York Times opinion piece argues that preventing another January 6-style attack on American democracy depends on voters defeating specific Republicans in the 2026 midterm elections. It focuses on key Senate and state races in Wisconsin, Georgia and Arizona, where candidates' positions on the 2020 election and election administration are again central issues as the midterms approach.
Why now: The 2026 midterms are drawing near, and debate over election denial and democratic backsliding is intensifying in swing states.
