1 How Election Day will impact Veterans: IAVA s Analysis of Contested Races for Members of HVAC, SVAC and Veterans Running for Congress Today is a critical day for all Americans but especially for veterans. Our community faces challenges at the VA, a growing suicide problem and fewer veterans 1 serving in Congress than at any other time in modern history. And as the war in Afghanistan winds down the stakes have never been higher. Last month, IAVA released our 2014 Voter Guide to empower veterans and all Americans as they head to the ballot box this week. But as the results come in, what will it all mean for our community? IAVA crunched the numbers and offers this brief analysis as we head into a historic Election Day on Tuesday. Currently there are 106 identifiable veterans in Congress. And based on current polls, the number of veterans in the next congress is likely to decrease and could range from 96 to 108. The following is a top line analysis of all contested races nationwide for members of the (1) Senate Veterans Affairs Committee (SVAC), (2) House Veterans Affairs Committee (HVAC) and for veterans who are running for the (3) US Senate and (4) US House of Representatives. 1. Senate Veterans Affairs Committee (SVAC) Based on current polling data, there is a possibility that the GOP takes control of the US Senate and maintains control of the House of Representatives. Barring a major reshuffle of commit- tees, SVAC is unlikely to change significantly following the election. Few members of SVAC are up for re- election, although incumbent Senator John Rockefeller of West Virginia is set to re- tire. Alaska Democratic Mark Begich is in tight race against Iraq Veteran, Dan Sullivan and is polling an average of two points behind. His opponent, Dan Sullivan, is a Lt. Col in the Marine Corps and deployed to Afghanistan. Alaska is notoriously difficult to poll, so this race will come down to the wire. 1 For this analysis, veteran is defined as someone who served in the United States Armed Forces.

House Veterans Affairs Committee (HVAC) Republican Chairman Jeff Miller of Florida is in a safe district and will continue to lead the Committee. Current Ranking Member Mike Michaud is running for Governor of Maine and leaving Con- gress, which will leave a vacancy for Ranking Member. Multiple members of the committee have expressed interested in the position; however, there is no clear indicator who the Rank- ing Member will be. A few other members could lose their seat or face a tight final count. There are a number of members that have served in the military, and two post- 9/11 combat veterans.

Veterans Running For US Senate Currently, there are only two combat veterans serving in the US Senate (and only one from the post- 9/11 generation). Senator John McCain of Arizona is a Vietnam veteran. Senator John Walsh of Montana served in Iraq. Senator McCain is not up for re-election and will be returning next year. John Walsh, the first Iraq veteran in the history of the US Senate has withdrawn from his race and will not be serving in the 114 th Congress. There will be at least one Iraq/Afghanistan Veteran, possibly two, serving in the US Senate in the 114 th Congress. In Arkansas, Republican challenger Tom Cotton is likely to win his race against incumbent Democrat Mark Pryor. Cotton is an Army veteran with a tour to Iraq and one to Afghanistan. In Alaska, Republican Afghanistan veteran Dan Sullivan is polling two points ahead of incumbent Democrat Mark Begich- - but that race will come down to the wire. After this election, the number of those who have served in the military (in peacetime) in the Senate will not change dramatically. Depending on those races that are toss- ups or to close to call, there could be as few as 17 or as many as 22 who served in uniform at the start of the 114 th Congress. Three Democrats will be leaving the Senate (Walsh, Harkin, Johnson) and one is likely to win election for the first time (Gary Peters, MI). The Republicans have one incum- bent Veteran at risk, Pat Roberts - KS, who is in a very tight race. Tom Cotton [R- AR] is the strongest challenger for the GOP and is likely to win his race. 3

Veterans Running For US House of Representatives At the beginning of the current term there were 87 members who served in the United States Armed Forces in the House of Representatives, and there are 72 incumbents currently running for reelection. This includes 54 Republicans and 18 Democrats. Three incumbents are at risk of losing their seat; one Democrat, William Enyart [IL-12] is in a very tight race and two Republicans, Michael Grimm [NY-11] and Vance McAllister [LA-5] are behind in the polls. We have identified 94 non-incumbent veterans who have secured a major nomination. This includes 41 Republicans and 53 Democrats, and 1 independent candidate who received a nomination in California's blanket primary. Overall, we have identified 165 veterans (incumbent and non-incumbent) who have secured a major party nomination, compared to 185 in the 2012 election. This represents the largest decline in recent history. This has been driven by a significant drop in Republican veteran nominees (94 in 2014 vs. 117 in 2012). The number of Democratic veteran nominees has increased from 68 in 2012 to 71 in We have identified 44 post-9/11 veterans running for the House of Representatives. Of those, 13 are incumbents, all of whom are likely to win re-election. Out of the 31 challengers, based on recent polling, 3 Democrats are likely to win election for the first time, Ruben Gallego [AZ-07], Mark Takai [HI-01] and Seth Moulton [MA-06]. One Republican, Steve Russell [OK-05], is likely to be elected and Republicans Jeff Gorell [CA-26] and Stephen Knight [CA-25] are in races too close to call. Despite the overall drop in veteran nominees, there has been an increase in the number of women veteran nominees. Ten women veterans received a major party House nomination in 2014, the highest number ever. The non-incumbent veterans who have received a Democratic nomination are generally running in significantly tougher districts than their fellow Democratic nominees without military service. On average, the former are running in districts that Romney won by 21 percent, while the latter's districts went to Romney by 16 percent.

Summary The issues facing our country and the veterans community have never been more urgent.
