Open letter to the brand new chair of the Democratic Nationwide Committee, Ken Martin:
Pricey Mr. Martin,
On this harmful historic second with the U.S. authorities within the arms of those that would destroy it, isn’t it time to acknowledge and honor the resilient and constant Blue-Dot constituencies in reliably pink states?
These are the individuals who, surrounded and outnumbered by MAGA voters, bravely get up for democracy by turning out for each election.
To that finish, I’m suggesting that you just convene common Blue-Dot gatherings that convey collectively representatives from a dozen or extra locales. Given their expertise behind-the-lines, these representatives might give you some key insights into easy methods to nurture extra Democratic votes in hostile environment. They may additionally function an efficient sounding board for any new messaging.
Not one of the Blue-Dot’s pink dwelling states will doubtless flip allegiance any time quickly. However in an electoral map the place each county counts, these decided Blue souls might turn into a stunning vanguard within the battle to rescue America.
If I have been to decide on a Blue Dot web site to start this new enterprise, I’d humbly recommend Indianapolis. Different locations to think about — urged by their 2024 presidential-percentage vote share — are included…
