The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has pulled a classic bait-and-switch, deciding to bury its 2024 election after-action report rather than face the music.
The DNC revealed that it will keep the findings of this critical review hidden from the public, a directive straight from Chairman Ken Martin, Just The News revealed.
This move starkly contrasts with earlier promises of openness, especially as the party gears up for future congressional fights.
In February, Martin was elected DNC chair with a mission to dissect the party’s losses in the Senate and White House.
As reported by The New York Times, he committed to a thorough audit of past mistakes and a blueprint for recovery.
Yet, that promise has been shelved.
Martin is now opting to seal the report from public view.
A DNC spokeswoman, speaking anonymously to The New York Times, noted that Martin fears a public reckoning could undermine efforts to reclaim congressional power next year.
This decision follows Democrat successes in statewide races in New Jersey and Virginia in 2024.
However, it is raising questions about whether recent wins have dulled the appetite for self-reflection.
Over the summer, sources hinted the report would sidestep thorny issues like former President Joe Biden’s reelection bid and key choices in failed Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris’s campaign.
Internally, the party clashed over the audit’s scope.
Some senior Harris aides are even refusing interviews, leaving accountability in limbo.
Still, DNC officials leaked a summary of findings to The New York Times.
The leak paints a picture of strategic blunders that conservatives might quietly applaud.
The report critiques the party’s obsession with the sheer volume of voter contacts over quality engagement.
Meanwhile, peer-to-peer texting failed to move the needle.
It also flags underinvestment in streaming platforms to court younger voters, strained data systems, and a defensive stance on public safety and immigration.
Republicans, on the other hand, seized economic messaging.
Martin summed up his rationale with a quip:
“Here’s our North Star: Does this help us win?”
One wonders if winning means dodging hard truths.
This secrecy suggests the DNC might be more focused on optics than fixing what’s broken.
