The Democratic National Committee determined it failed to follow internal rules in February. Separately, Hogg’s plans to back primaries against incumbent Democrats stirred controversy.
It’s about 400 people who vote for chair and vice chairs. And over time those voters as a group have become more progressive.
The chair has final say on everything, and is accountable to no one. Ken Martin could have done whatever he wanted, but he can’t time travel to before he became chair and enforce the DNC’s rules.
He choose the democratic path forward…
So I don’t understand why people keep hanging the sins of past DNC’s on his head. If you want to know what kind of leader he’s gonna be, I’m not asking for blind faith, he has a track record and all signs point to him running the DNC like he ran Minnesota for over a decade immediately before becoming DNC chair.
But imagine your ideal candidate becomes president 2028, and I show up and start saying they’re gonna be terrible because of all the shit trump is doing right now. If I told you it didn’t matter because they’re both holding the same office, I wouldn’t be surprised if people called me crazy…
You’re thinking of the DNC as a single entity.

He can run it any way he wants. There’s 399 other people who can try to stop him.
I’m not holding my breath. Dems have failed me so damn always.
At any rate, none of us have a say. So we will be watching closely.
