Debbie wins. Probably something around 58-42.

Clinton carried the district 44,510 votes to 19,974 votes, which is a 69%-31% margin. DWS doesn't have the likability numbers among D's that Hillary has and will probably be under yuge accusations of convention shenanigans no matter how it actually goes, but ultimately I don't see enough Hillary/Canova voters existing for him to actually win.

DWS with 60-65%.

If she was trying to stay on as DNC chair I'd probably root for Canova, but since she'll be gone regardless I really couldn't care less.

All she's said is she won't be the chair in 2020; or at least that's what I've gleaned out of her statements. Has she confirmed she isn't going to be around to make 2018 into a filibuster proof republican senate majority (or something pretty close to that)?

I was under the impression the incoming president picks the new DNC chair. I'd imagine Hillary would much rather have DWS as an ambassador or something else rather than continuing to muck up the DNC.

How I understand it is the president can more or less call for a vote on electing a new chair; but I don't think they can actually force them to vote out DWS. Correct me with sources if this isn't the case.
