Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley has expressed confidence in the Republican Party's momentum ahead of the 2024 elections, pointing to increased early voting, new voter registrations, and successful election integrity lawsuits as key factors.

Speaking on the "John Solomon Reports" podcast, Whatley noted that early voting in Virginia has surged, with a 38% increase compared to the 2020 election. He highlighted that 574,000 voters, primarily in Republican-leaning areas, have already cast their ballots. "Yesterday was the first day in history where we had more Republican absentee ballots returned than Democrats," Whatley stated, calling this shift significant.

Whatley also emphasized the growth in Republican voter registrations. In Florida, Republicans now have a one million voter lead over Democrats, while gains have been made in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Ohio. "We've cut the Democrat majority in half in these states," Whatley said.

Additionally, Whatley pointed to recent legal victories that Republicans have achieved. The RNC won a lawsuit in Michigan against Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, ensuring that mail-in ballot safeguards will be enforced in the upcoming election. Another legal victory in New Hampshire affirmed voter ID laws.

These developments, Whatley believes, signal a strong position for Republicans as they look toward the 2024 elections.
