Ken Martin, the longtime leader of Minnesota’s state Democratic Party organization, won the vote to lead the national party committee this month.

Summary

Ken Martin, the new DNC chair, has begun his first multistate tour on Monday, visiting key swing and red states including Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Illinois, Texas, and Missouri.

His itinerary includes meetings with union representatives, state party chairs, and door-knocking for a special election candidate near Pittsburgh.

A former Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL) leader, Martin said the tour aims to reconnect with diverse voters, rebuild the party’s brand after recent losses, and aggressively counter policies and misinformation from Trump and others.

    Hey non-voters and third partiers: Go to this and participate.

    Or, don’t and continue pretending you’ve got it all figured out.

    2028 is going to be here in like 30 seconds. Does everyone have a national organization yet? . . I mean a viable one. One with more than, like, 20 people in each state. No? Well. You . . should get that going then. Or, y’know, use the one that’s already here.
