Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) communications director Meredith Kelly admitted on Monday night that voters in swing districts don't care about the Russia investigation involving President Donald Trump.

Fox News host Martha MacCallum said the DCCC must have a tough time getting its message out with all the news coverage of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Many Democrats and members of the media have speculated that Russia colluded with Trump's presidential campaign, a charge the president has dismissed.

"Russia is certainly a big topic and this investigation is one that a lot of people are focused on, but Democratic candidates all across the country are actually talking directly to voters about the issues that impact their everyday lives," Kelly said.
