A top Republican campaign official is asking voters to overlook economic hardships and high gas prices, framing the 2026 elections as a choice between Republican recovery and Biden-era policies, while also pushing redistricting changes.

NRCC Chair Richard Hudson urged voters to ignore high gas prices and criticism of the Iran war, claiming Republicans have brought prices down from $9/gallon, while also celebrating a Supreme Court ruling on Louisiana's racial gerrymander and suggesting states delay primaries to redraw maps ahead of the 2026 House elections.
