At the Races: It's not easy being green - Roll Call

Voting for change: The Wall Street Journal takes a thorough look, including with multiple graphics, at the nearly 1,800 election and voting bills that state lawmakers have introduced across the country. Both Democrats and Republicans have sponsored bills related to mail and absentee voting, among other issues.   

The count: $125,000

That’s how much, combined, the GOP’s House and Senate campaign committees got in February and March from six corporate PACs — Altria, Cigna, CVS, Dow Chemical, Home Depot and Intel — that had said after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot they would reconsider or change contribution policies toward the 147 Republicans voting to reject electoral votes for Biden from Georgia, Pennsylvania or both states. The six PACs gave another $125,000, combined, to Democratic House and Senate committees.

Nathan’s notes

Voter turnout will be down next year, Nathan L. Gonzales writes, but it won’t be because of state laws that make voting more difficult.

Candidate confessions

Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger reported a jump in his campaign fundraising during the first quarter — $1.1 million this year, up from $326,000 over the same period in 2019. But it’s not necessarily as easy at it looks to raise all that money as an anti-Trump Republican. 

“In terms of just the small-dollar stuff, it’s all a new world, without using rage and anger and fear on Twitter. It takes a little more work,” he told our colleague Chris Cioffi recently. “I’m not going to reveal a ton of it, but it really is day by day because it depends what the news cycle is. … It’s just finding the people that are with you. And it’s unfortunate that it takes this much money now, but that’s where we’re at.”
