## Resource

Republicans are staging their first-ever midterm convention in Dallas, billed as a “Trump-a-palooza” by Ronna McDaniel, but key North Dakota figures like Kelly Armstrong, John Hoeven, and Kevin Cramer are skipping — citing priorities like constituent meetings and committee work instead of endorsing or attending. While Trump’s influence looms large, nearly half of GOP candidates aren’t getting his backing, and he holds majorities in 24 states — though none of those states are North Dakota.
