The National Republican Congressional Committee promoted three House candidates to "contender" status Tuesday, the third out of four steps in the "Young Guns" program that aims to provide a strategic and fundraising boost to formidable GOP candidates.
Republicans Ann Wagner in Missouri, Steve Daines in Montana and Luke Messner in Indiana have reached "contender" status. They will have to meet a new set of benchmarks to fully enter the "Young Guns" program.
The three additions represent the second round of "contender" candidates the NRCC has announced. Last week, the committee announced its first round of 11 candidates. That list included Randy Altschuler in New York, Richard Tisei in Massachusetts and Ricky Gill in California.
