Democratic National Committee Leadership Race
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is gathering to choose new leadership after setbacks in the 2024 elections. Eight candidates are vying for the DNC chair position, with Ken Martin and Ben Wikler seen as frontrunners. Key issues include messaging, strategy, and winning back support from blue-collar voters. Ongoing debates focus on systemic racism, diversity, and inclusion. The party faces challenges as a national poll shows a high percentage of voters with an unfavorable opinion of the Democratic Party.
