The Next DNC Chair: TOM PEREZ WINS, makes Ellison deputy chair

[Suburbia]

Yes, let Keith Ellison dig the democrats an early grave.  I mean yeah, Progressives love having diversity in their party but is he right for the job? You're going to see the Democrats take a huge turn to the left and they will fail even more against the Republicans. I'm really excited to see more conservatives in office!! Keith Ellison is a Trojan horse.

It's entirely within the party's best interest electorally to take a "huge turn to the left"; for the party to win in places like Ohio and Iowa again, they're going to have to become a true worker's party that rejects neoliberalism and embraces left-wing fiscal policies. Sanders would've won the rust belt (and thus the election) had he been nominated this year. Clintonism is the reason the Party has lost so much ground in the Midwest and similar areas across the country.

That's bull. Bill Clinton won those states in 1992 and 1996. Why then? Why did Clinton/Gore win those states and not Clinton in 2016, when NAFTA was still around in '96?

Keith Ellison will be the next DNC chair. He is a Sunni Muslim, he and the Democrats should expect to face onslaught attacks from now til 2018. I won't be surprised if Republicans use Ellison in their campaigns in 2017 and 2018.

I like Ellison's personality, he is good on some of the issues, but he could be a distraction for Democrats. However, I want to see if he can appeal to white working class voters. He'll probably run for president in 2020's, or run for U.S. Senate from Minnesota if Franken retires.

Perez doesn't have so much energy, but he's not a radical.

Boynton Brown got 12 votes, dropped out, didn't endorse.

Guess she can't shut down white people

Wtf is up with all the hate for Perez? DNC Chair isn't a policy figure. And even if it was, he's just as progressive as Ellison.
