Here’s the thing about new DNC Chair Jamie Harrison

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Jamie Harrison did a fantastic job of organizing and fundraising in his 2020 race. It turned out to simply be unwinnable in that state, but he proved the blueprint. I love that he’s going to be DNC Chair. I expect big wins in 2022.

People asking why Stacey Abrams wasn’t picked for DNC Chair. After all, she had the best blueprint of all. I don’t know the answer. But everything I’ve heard suggests that she wants to run for Governor of Georgia in 2022. I imagine it would be difficult to do both things at the same time.
