The media keeps focusing on spreadsheets. Consultants keep focusing on spending that used to make them rich. I’m focused on wins. 💪 90% Democratic overperformance in elections 🧹 30-0 in statehouse flips 💵 ~50% more cash on hand than 2018 Read my op-ed in @thehill.com: thehill.com/opinion/camp...

The DNC is getting a lot of coverage right now, but much of it is missing the bigger picture. Fundraising numbers are being treated as the whole story. They’re not.

Meanwhile, what’s actually happening on the ground? Under @kenmartin.bsky.social, @democrats.org are overperforming in ~90% of elections. And we’ve flipped 30 state legislative seats. Republicans? 0. That’s not theory. That’s results -- and it’s why the old model is pushing back.

Look at where those wins are happening: @iowademocrats.bsky.social: broke a GOP supermajority @nebraskadems.bsky.social: flipped Omaha mayor @msdems.bsky.social: broke a supermajority @texasdemocrats.bsky.social: 31-point swing in a Trump district @fladems.bsky.social: flipped Mar-a-Lago seat

These wins are the result of a strategic shift by @kenmartin.bsky.social to invest in: ☑️state parties ☑️candidate recruitment ☑️organizers on the ground Moving us away from the short-term, consultant-driven spending model -- and toward building real, durable Democratic Party infrastructure.
