Kasie Hunt: Dems Believe Gun Control Will Help Them Take Seats Away from Republicans

‘Democrats that I have talked to who are in vulnerable areas or who are trying to challenge Republicans believe this is an issue that’s going to help them take seats away’

EXCERPT:

HUNT: "I think that analysis is spot on. The places where Democrats need to win, this issue is going to — it’s going to add to everything that they are already concerned about. And I think, you know, Democrats that I have talked to who are in vulnerable areas or who are trying to challenge sitting Republicans believe that this is going to be an issue that’s going to help them take seats away. But one of the things I think is important to remember here, too, and Michael, you talked about the parents of these kids. I think that’s absolutely true. Think about the kids themselves. First of all, how likely is it we’re going to see another school shooting between now and the midterm elections? You never want to predict something like that, but we've had three of the deadliest shootings in the last few months. It’s likely to potentially happen again."
