Ken Martin has taken a lot of shit as DNC chair. But pretty hard to argue with this scoreboard.

My DNC colleague nails it! The “establishment” didn’t want @kenmartin73 but he won and has shown the world what believing in the grassroots looks like. We all do better when we all do better.

The media keeps focusing on spreadsheets. Consultants keep focusing on spending that used to make them rich. I’m focused on wins. 💪 90% overperformance 🧹 30-0 in state legislative flips. 💵 50% more cash on hand than 2018 Read my op-ed in @thehill: thehill.com/opinion/campaign…
The numbers don’t lie: The DNC is winning where it matters most

The numbers don’t lie: The DNC is winning where it matters most

The media is evaluating party strength through the same lens used to evaluate campaigns: money raised, money spent, and quarterly comparisons. But parties are not campaigns.

This summer they said the DNC was broke. On Tuesday, Democrats went 7-0 in the Senate and swept Texas. Skeptics might say it was just a wave. But waves don't build boats. How @kenmartin73 and @TheDemocrats built the boat, in @thehill. Link below.

Ya know what? @kenmartin73 bet on places others had given up on. He didn't just talk about competing in red states. He funded the infrastructure to do it. Stronger state parties. More organizers. More resources. And guess what? We won in places people said we couldn't.

Not long ago critics called for his resignation. This week, DNC Chair @kenmartin73 delivered Democrats their largest victory in 50 years. Martin told me those critics have yet to reach out with congrats but said he's unconcerned as the DNC prepares for 2028 and beyond. newsweek.com/dnc-chair-ken-m…

BREAKING: the Democratic National Committee unanimously approved a resolution calling for the abolition of ICE! After terrorizing our friends, families, and neighbors, ICE has no place in our nation. I'm grateful the DNC agreed. Now we're onto the hard work to make that happen!

Before a single state applied, the DNC agreed on three tests: is it rigorous, is it fair, is it efficient? The whole early window should look like our Party, not a piece of it. I'm proud to have made some small impact on this historic & diverse calendar. Now let's go win. 🖐️☝️

IT’S OFFICIAL: The DNC has voted to confirm the early window states for the 2028 Democratic presidential nominating process. These states reflect the diversity of America and will help ensure our nominee is best positioned to take back the White House in 2028.

I met @peggyflanagan when she was an organizer - she came out to train with me at UCLA for CTA Summer Institute. She will be a great Senator.

Every hour Graham Platner refuses to take his name off the ballot is one day less to coalesce around a candidate and try to stop Donald Trump from doing generational damage to America. It’s the most selfish and unpatriotic act one could imagine.
