perez is probably 75%+ likely to win because the people who vote for dnc chairs are mostly the worst elements of the democratic party and just want more money in their state party budget

Obama really did a poor job at harnessing and maintaining the same grassroots energy that got him elected.

Probably because he would rather spend time with Wall street bankers than support progressive efforts.

the fact that state party officials and chairs apparently want perez while electeds have come out for ellison is just more evidence that state parties are useless organizations that should be driven farther into irrelevance rather than actually given money

the only criteria i care about for dnc chair:

1. is a good spokesperson for the party (ellison, buttigieg)
2. can raise money (all 3)
3. has proposed fundamental reforms or new programs that will improve the democratic party's competitiveness in elections (no one)
4. won't dismantle the dnc and replace it with the new hampshire democratic party (everyone except buckley)

nothing else really matters

Mitt Romney and some of the other egregious shills mysteriously stopped posting at around 8PM on election night. Either they just couldn't face the embarrassment or the "paid Hillary shills" thing wasn't just a right-wing rumor.

about 75% are from state parties and are generally state party chairs and a couple people from their circle. Their biggest interest is generally going to be voting for a chair who gives them more power and money. The rest are a combo of current electeds and then people appointed by the current DNC, both of which are also likely to be sympathetic to Perez. The short version is the DNC voting base is almost entirely old crusty dems who've been in party politics for decades and the majority probably have ties to hillary clinton, The state party ones are probably mostly voting based on who will promise to give them more power and money so they can hire their friends to not do much, they don't want to change the party structure much because they benefit from it, they just want to get more pie. I don't really see any reason why this group of people isn't going to vote for Tom Perez.

Yes it does. How the gently caress wouldn't it be relevant? Why should the DNC chair support a free trade agreement that murder should the gently caress out of the working class wages?

state parties have always been bad, and they will always be bad. the only way around this would be to completely gut all of them and reform new democratic state parties where their leadership is chosen by the dnc instead of local politicos looking for patronage.

I wish I would have screenshotted it but there was a meltdown by a goon saying that the election results were all a nightmare and he kissed his daughter goodnight telling her that tomorrow in the morning Hillary was gonna be the first female president.

I think it was the last time he posted lol
