The GOP launched a blitz of door-knocking and phone-banking events over the weekend as Sunday marked the 100-day mark from the 2022 midterm elections. Overall, volunteers and staffers with the Republican National Committee have made 40 million voter contacts – voters contacted via phone-banking or door-knocking – so far this election cycle. In Iowa, Republicans organized over 20 volunteer door-launch events, including one in Altoona with IA-03 congressional candidate Zach Nunn. In addition, RNC officials have stressed the importance of their grassroots-powered ground game infrastructure. With Democrats holding onto razor-thin majorities in the U.S. House and Senate, Republican volunteers could be a key factor behind who controls Congress after November.
