Senate Democrats' Campaign Chief Vows to Stay Out of GOP Primaries.

The Senate Democrats’ 2024 election chief, Sen. Gary Peters, said he will not intervene in Republican primaries to ensure "weak" candidates win, but believes that tumultuous GOP primaries will advance extreme candidates on their own. Peters heads the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) and faces a tough election map in 2024, with multiple vulnerable incumbents in traditionally Republican states having their terms up next year. Despite Peters saying more extreme Republicans winning the primaries would help Democratic candidates in general elections, he said he was not willing to have the DSCC dip into GOP primaries to tip the scales for more right-wing candidates.
